Thursday Morning Update:
As pretty well expected for this time of the year, Friday's weather at Burford is not looking promising at all! As I write this post, it is dead calm outside, but cold. They are calling for high winds today at Burford! They better be right or we just blew a great opportunity to go flying! At any rate I'm going to pull the plug on going to the field tomorrow. I will be watching the weather predictions for a possible weather window in the upcoming weeks. Bound to get some decent flying weather soon I hope!
Cheers!
Lyle
Afternoon:
As crazy as this sounds, I been looking at the weather reports for the coming week, and this Friday they are calling for 7-11 km winds from the West, with temperatures around 4C! Although not ideal, they might be good enough to allow me to toss a bunch of planes that I need to check the CG's on.
I realize it's still early days, but I am keeping my eye on the weather reports in the meantime.
Best,
Lyle

Re: Saturday, November 2/24, Burford Flying Session
Morning!
Indications are that we will have a potential for decent flying conditions this coming Saturday. Sunny, low winds, but cool! Might be our last opportunity for outdoor flying this season! I'll be picking Terry D. up and heading to the Skyway Cafe before heading to the field. Most likely won't be arriving until 10:30 am.
Just a reminder, the porta potty is long gone for season....
Hope to see y'all there!

Westover Tues Oct 22
Myself, Tim, Mike K, Mike S and Lyle observing had a good day today. It was gusty and the lift wasn't always continuous, but we had some good flights. Nice and warm for late Oct and the Fall colours made it a worthwhile day. Thanks guys for coming out.
