Flying at Mines Road Friday Aug 31

Post by Bob H » Fri Aug 31, 2018 7:13 am

The forecast sez our ALES Contest is a GO for tomorrow (Saturday Sept 1), but I'll send out an e-mail to confirm this later today.
My Lanzo Bomber hasn't been out of the hangar yet this year. Time for a shake-down cruise to see if it still has any ALES left in it. Will be at Mines Road around 9 AM.

I plan to be at the slope Tuesday 28th around 9am. Sunny, winds SW mid 20s kph gusting 40. If the forecast is correct should be OK at 45 deg to the slope.

Slope soaring on Friday August 24

Post by Bob H » Fri Aug 24, 2018 7:33 am

The current Superforecast says Saturday's winds look better than Friday's winds. But rain is also predicted for part of Saturday.

So I'll try the slope today (Friday) starting around 11 AM. Hamilton Conservation Authority has been notified re Friday flying.

If the forecast still looks OK tomorrow, and if I still have an airplane, I may go on Saturday too.

Afternoon:
The Wind & Wave site is calling for light winds tomorrow with a possible chance of light rain in the early hours. If the rain stops and it clears up, I shall be hauling my planes to the field sometime after 9:30 am and probably stay until 1 or so depending on conditions. I'm taking both line launch and electric planes and will be working on my landings.....what else?

Cheers!
Lyle
