Grob 102 Astir, same one as Vorsanger/Charles I'll hazard a guess.

If I remember correctly I got 'down' to 4000 ' AGL at about the midpoint and
wasn't sure I was going to make it. I think I took about 20 thermals to do
it too. I do remember the run back from the TP ( it was an out and return
totaling 100km )
I got under a cloud street and in spite of flying straight and flat out I
got back home higher than I had turned the TP. Took all of 20 minutes to
get back after nearly 2 hours to get out there.
