I wonder if anyone has ever soared in this combination.

It's looks a bit marginal VFR but certainly an amazing photo! :-)

Northern Lights and Lenticulars in Finland
We have a resident Icelander in Moriarty, NM. He's the holder of the
soaring endurance record in Iceland. Of course, they don't accept endurance claims any more. He did it many years ago.

The sun has been very active the latest weeks and I have been trying to spot the Northern Light several times. But as with vacation and soaring weather is the northern light and the weather phased but with 180 degrees out of sync.

Northern Lights and Lenticulars in Finland
Stunning photograph!
With three winters of military flying in interior Alaska as far north as Dead Horse, I never saw the northern lights while flying. Many times from the ground, but never in flight. What a disappointment. On 11/4/2015 4:50 PM, son_of_flubber wrote: http://cdn.theatlantic.com/assets/me.../main_1500.jpg I wonder if anyone has ever soared in this combination. -- Dan, 5J

Credit to the photographer
http://travel.nationalgeographic.com...ights-iceland/ This also confirms that this is Iceland. The photo was mis-attributed where I first stumbled across it.

Amateur photographer Daniele Boffelli (Italy) is easily found on FB.
I wrote to him how his his photo caught the heart of international glider pilots. Fingers crossed for a nice ranking in the NG photo contest. cheers, aldo cernezzi www.voloavela.it
