Two new women's world records?


Preliminary report says that Corinna flew 407 km on Sunday, the
5th. This would be a new women's world record for straight line distance if it
holds up. The distance is only approximate at the moment and close to the
previous record of 403.5 km.  From Tacima, Paraiba, northern Brazil to
Quixada, Ceará, Brazil. Eight plus hours of flying (not the 10.5 hours of flying
that the paraglider pilots are doing there). She needs to exceed the previous
record by 1 km.



The previous record:

This flight was also to a declared goal (and it would be a new women's declared
goal world record) of 405 km. Considering than she landed within five minutes of
sundown that is pretty astounding.
