Our activity is so weather-dependent and the weather is so changeable, that our flying sessions are usually planned on pretty short notice.

If you'd like to have some company when you fly, you can easily start a flying session by scrolling to the bottom of this page and clicking on "Leave a reply" to this Topic. Just indicate the day, and time that you intend to arrive at the field, and invite other members to join you.

Or, you can "Leave a reply" to accept another person's invitation to form a flying session. People intending to join in should post a Reply, because multiple Replies fuel additional interest.

To "Leave a reply", you will need log in to the Message Board using the username and password that were issued to you. If you've lost them, you can use the lost your password functionality to trigger a password reset - if you do not see a response within a few minutes, be sure to check your Junk/SPAM folder for the password reset email.

If you are not able to complete a reset because your registered email address is not current you can either register with a new username OR Contact our Website Administrator Tim Glover <tglover51@hotmail.com> for additional assistance.

Note that new registrations require manual administrative review so there may be an additional delay if you choose this option.

Sunday is looking alright, especially the afternoon. Cool, but otherwise OK weather.

If the weather holds, I should be there for 10AM or so, mostly flying Histart.

Not sure if I am going to be able to make it but I'm gonna try! I have my Wanderer 99 all set up and ready to test fly. I'll be curious how the colder weather affects the performance of the hi-start.

Cheers!

Unfortunately the conditions don't look so good anymore.

I'll check in the AM, but don't expect to be flying Sunday Afternoon

Forget my last post folks (now deleted).

Turns out our agreement with the Hamilton Conservation Authority to fly at Westover ended at the end of 2016 and we have not yet had a response from them to renew. So please do not fly at Westover until informed by the Executive that it is OK to do so.

Thanks,
Andy Meysner

The Weatherman has not been kind to us. The soft soggy sod crop could easily be damaged by heavy SOGGI footprints. SOGGI Executive will continue to check soil conditions at regular intervals. Members will be notified the instant that we receive permission to begin flying.

Planning to be at Westover Friday ~10:30. I'll inform HCA before I leave home.
