Default Winter Thermal Cross-Country

Friday November 11th saw a cold front and low-pressure system through
Arizona that produced excellent winter cross-country conditions. The
best two flights were 440 km and 388 km (log files on OLC), probably
the latest 300km+ flights we have seen.

This led me to wonder how many sites around the world produce such good
winter cross-country thermal flights? South Africa and Australia are
two candidates I can think of.

Mike
