Sorry to pick this up so late. In the 80's I was able to soar at Monflorite, a few miles north of Zaragoza. At that point Monflorite was both the national soaring site and the home of a soaring club whose members were mainly from Zaragoza. Also sorry that my two best English speaking contacts are not current. You might want to check it out. I did a triangle from Monflorite to Pamplona along the Pyrenees to Andorra and back to Monflorite. The vultures (Buitre commune in Spanish, probably misspelled) are great thermal markers.
