@sumone - easter weather here in Wellington is not so great either - wind is gusting and tomorrow we will get pelted with rain too - I did get to try slope soaring yesterday which for my first attempt went quite well - I had a camera on board but messed up filming with the camera 'ON' when on the ground, and 'OFF' when flying!
I look at the Vista every day - actually it is ready to go, but I feel I need to crash the FT planes a bit more first!
