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.

Base wind looks OK but I'm getting conflicting forecasts for the gusts, 1 OK, 1 too high. Regardless I'll be there ~10:15-10:30.

Friday is now looking better than Thursday, continuing to keep an eye on it.

Friday was suicidally windy, no kidding - would have needed a lead sled. So Dick and I shot the breeze (literally) for half an hour and gave up.
However, early days yet but Thursday might be promising.

Plan to be a the slope Friday morning for a couple of hours, arriving ~10:00 - 10:30. Forecast is northerly high 20s km/h. Might need gloves though.

Good Adam, see you there and hope folks read the SOGGI email re informal contest. For those who have not:-
Sunday looks like a great flying day, clear skies and low winds. So anyone who wants to participate I thought we could make up for the Thanksgiving Contest multiple postponements..
For those who wish to join in a very informal contest; -
- As many rounds as you want to fly
- Score on max total time and average time per round
- Landing points score too
- LSF achievements for those who need it
- No classes, electric, Hi-start or winch, any wingspan
No pressure, relaxed and just have fun. If you don't want to record scores, still come along and fly anyway or help out.
I'll bring some score cards and we'll aim to start flying (contest wise) around 11 am, as it will be cool before then.
Hope to see you there, There won't be many more flying days this season.
Andy
Weather's looking great for Sunday.
Hoping to maiden a couple new ships, so I'll be flying histart and electric.
Planning on being at the field shortly before 9AM.
The latest forecast doesn't look any worse, so I'm headed for the field to arrive around 10 AM
