Text Book land-out

We often talk about what makes for a good land-out.
Selecting a good paddock, checking out the area in advance, a standard circuit, landing into wind if possible, or uphill.

Here's a good example. I've lost the photo of the paddock but it was a good one.
The glider appears from the bottom right. You can see the pilot clearly found a paddock at 2500ft. He then got a small climb back to 3000ft and headed off to look for a better thermal safe in the knowledge the local area had a good land-out site.

No further thermals could be found and at 2500ft and 6.5kms from his paddock he heads back. The glider arrives back overhead the final landing site at 1500ft above the ground. A final look for a thermal...no luck.
The circuit is started at 800ft. Finals at 600ft.
A safe landing ensued...followed by a long retrieve.

Text book stuff Maurice...no wonder you are CFI.
Update...and now you're are not CFI it was still one of the best out landings that has been demonstrated by any of our current instructors panel...
