Footlaunch and more than 12 hrs in the air, no comfy winch tow!:-) Not longest for kilometers, but we should appreciate that there are still pilots, who are willing to get up earlier, start after 5 AM in the morning and soar for 2 hours before thermic activity is established enough to go for looong XC. 🇧🇷
