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.

UPDATE 6:30 am Thurs. CANCELLED Too windy and looks more westerly than a north wind.

Only tentative right now as the wind forecast is marginally low. But keeping an eye on the forecast for around noon on Thursday. Currently 16-24 kph N at noon. Will update late Weds or early Thurs.

Morning!
Looking at the weather reports for next week and noticed that Monday's predicted conditions look pretty amazing! Soooo....I think I will drag some wee flying beasts out of the basement and head to the field. I usually arrive around 9:30 am.

Who's up for some thermal chasing? : )

Cheers!
Lyle

The forecast for tomorrow a.m. seems promising so I'm going to try & get to the field by 9:00-ish and stay for a couple of hours.

I will update here if the weather doesn't live up to its forecast.

Wednesday evening update:
The Weather Network and Wind & Waves are calling for winds from the North West 13-20 kph tomorrow. So I am planning on arriving around 9 am. Will also probably bring my patched up 2M Spectra to practice some spot landings with the contest tapes. Going to be a lot cooler and dryer, so I am looking for a good morning at the field.

Whose going to join me?

Cheers!
Lyle

Morning!
According to the Wind & Waves app, Thursday is looking pretty good with predicted winds of 7-15 kph from the North West. I just finished the repairs and programming to my MadRES that I bought off of Ann Tekatch last year. So I plan on bringing it out to field for some test flights to see if I can get it dialled in. I will also bring my UMX Radian because, well.... it's just so much fun to fly! : )

Due to the unpredictable nature of the weather patterns of late, I will update this post on Wednesday evening.

Lyle
