Pulpit Sunday

The forecast is looking very good for tomorrow (Sunday) at the Pulpit. Bacil, myself and a couple more pilots are planing on flying there. An early start could lead to a good XC flight. Come on and join us.

Re: Sunday (04/02/2023) @ Woodstock

I had a good time in my HG, got to 5870' MSL out in the valley. And that was when the PGs were sinking out. I stayed up for 1 hour and 35 minutes. The turbulence was moderate going in and out of thermals. My fastest climb rate was 920' per minute.

Re: SAC 9/29

I got to the Sac about 2:00 and it was blowing in nice. Launched 3:11 after waiting a while on the mount. My glider's nose was a bit too high when I launched and I dipped low in the slot but had plenty of speed to get out. Turned right and went up over 1000' in a short time. So I headed to the Kling...

Pulpit Sunday?

The forecast is looking like the Pulpit could be good today. Anyone interested? It is 7:30 AM Sunday and the meter shows it as ridge soaring being possible.

Fly from Ravens Haven

Sunday's forecast is looking good to fly from Ravens Haven and maybe to the Pupil from there. Light wind for some ridge lift and good thermal activity. Who's in? We could even leave a vehicle at the Pulpit LZ.

Re: Pulpit June 29th, 2022

I headed to the Pulpit Tuesday after working part day. After getting everything coordinated it I didn't get launched until 5:00 and the thermals were shutting down. I ended up with a 28 minute flight getting 500' over launch. I camped out there overnight and was watching the forecast which looked go...

Re: Weekend 6/18 - 6/19 flying

It is looking very windy on Saturday then it backs off a bit for Sunday. I would think the Pulpit would be blown out Sat and Sun. Sac might work later Sat and Ravens Haven on Sun. Bacil if you want to fly the Sac on Sat early I could be chase crew. Then I would like to fly Ravens Haven on Sunday and...

June 10, 22 Pulpit flight

I arrived in Chambersburg about 12:30 and I checked weather stations at the Pulpit and Edith's Gap to see if I wanted to go to WS or PP. There were PGs at Woodstock already, reporting L&V wind. The Pulpit looked much better wind wise. So I called Rich to see if he would help me launch, which he ...

I can fly Saturday. Is it even possible to have a launch crew? Ravens Haven forecast is straight in at the prime time. Could maybe fly to the Pulpit and back.

Re: Bills Hill : Sun May 8

I would like to go to Bills Hill. I am not sure that we are allowed to do any cutting. Seems like Tom Ceunen says the forest service has not given us the okay to cut. Bari kind of indicated it may be in good enough shape to launch from.
