3 motor gliders and myself in a hangglider flew this Morning Glory today. Geoff and Kevin each in single seat motor gliders headed SE for about 50k along the cloud before returning and meeting me back over Burketown. They then headed in the opposite direction chasing the 2 Seater motor glider. The 2 seater flew from burketown to about 10k's into NT about 110NM (200k) from Burketown before returning under power. I flew for about 1.5 hours following the cloud inland till it dissipated about 30k's inland from Burketown. Most of the flight my height was about 2300ft.

Approaching the cloud along the Albert River at 1000ft. Checkout the wind gust on the water. The wind gust is about 20knots

The view from my hangglider at 2300ft. The shadow has just hit Burketown. Yep, thats the whole town near the bend in the river in the middle of the picture.
