Drove to top of the hill on the South Side of Lake St Clair
Got to the top of the hill about 3:30 and were ready to fly at 4pm.
It was slightly coming over the back (from the East) so we had to wait for a slight up hill breeze.
Andrew launched at about 4:10.
Greg launched at about 4:15
I tried to launched but got a collapse and finally got away about 4:30
Landed about 4:45
Launch height was 600m
Maximum height was about 700m
Landing in Landing Zone at 230m
total travelled distance 7.4km

Greg eventually landed next to Andrew at the Rural Fire station about 5:15.
