Glider outlands during the final glide in rain - FCC Prievidza 2022

Due to the storm there was a strong sink that didn't allow me to reach the airport. I landed a few hundred meters before airfield. I did the retrieve myself :)

They say, PIK-20's really suffer from rain interference. But I would love to have one, with the 90 degree flaps.

I've never flown a PIK 20, but it looks like an interesting glider!

@bernarddobre A circular crank takes the flaps down to 90 degrees, unless it's the PIK-20C, which I believe has more standard spoilers, and flaps.
