Default Andes Wave flight

Jackie Payne shares, "This morning Dennis [Tito] and Jim [Payne] launched in the Arcus just after sunrise at gliderport Lago Nahuel Haupi near Bariloche. Link is below for near real time tracking. We think the best wave will be from midnight to noon today. So might be an early landing if the wave does diminish. However they are working 5-6000 meter band for altitude so enjoying "stretching their wings." Follow along with the SSA Sailplane Tracker or with Glideport http://glideport.aero/map?p=GlidePort:52343
