Plan to be at the slope Fri Jul 22 about 1pm provided the wind forecast stays within +/-45 of slope face.

The weather forecast for Thursday has improved. I plan to start flying at 10:00 AM.

PostScript: Dick C. joined me today and we flew until 12 noon. Powerful lift was concentrated in very small areas that constantly moved around. Ditto for down-drafts. We both had some good flights.

Evening!
Looks like tomorrow morning will be my only chance to get in some flying time this week. I hope to arrive around 9:30 am and will probably head out around noon. I will bring my shade canopy as I hear its going to be quite warm! Hope to see some members out flying with me.

Cheers!
Lyle

It looks like Wednesday morning will be the only time available this week for me to get in some air time. Hoping to be at the field around 8:30 am. Likely stay until noon or whenever the plane breaks.....which ever comes first! : )

Cheers!

The weather Forecast looks pretty good for our first contest at the new field. Winds will initially be from the north, changing to east as the day progresses.

Bring your water bottle, stop watch, whistle and lawn chair. Any additional sunshades would be welcome. Registration starts at 9:00 AM. Contact CD Ann T if questions.

Morning!
With a little luck, Terry Dawson & I might end up at the flying field early this afternoon. As usual, I'll be bringing my Cumulus DLG for more tuning & if you want to see something really funny.....I will be practicing my discus launch. : )

Cheers!
Lyle

Think I'll try a couple of test flights this morning. See Superforecast attached below. Maybe I'll answer the Call-of-the-Doughnuts afterwards.
