Yes I did... and to get the 5hr duration in ridge lift close to the airport in October to get it all done in one season.. sometimes I was looking up at the ridge.. some times looking down.
I had planned the 5hrs on the 50km cross country, get to the destination, hangout for duration and then call for an aero tow home. But the weather had different ideas and dropped me on the destination airport after 3 hours.
