Re: Highland Aerosports 2016 Season News

Really hope things work out. I agree that the signing bonus for a new pilot might be a great idea, and of course I'm willing to kick in. Dan L. has already posted something on the.org about this, so hopefully that gets the word out a little better. Truck towing is great, and I'm a regular at blue sk...

Club donation to USHPA

I am hoping that as a club we step up and help out with the dire emergency situation regarding our insurance. Our local club here in western Maryland (MHGA) has already voted to donate $1000. I just read a few minutes ago that the Sylmar club in California is donating $5000. Other clubs across the c...

Re: Ridgely Sunday

What a nice day at the flight park. I flew only once, as I had a long drive home, but it was a beautiful 44 minute flight, topping out between 2500-3000 agl, on a totally blue day. Crisp air, lots of wings aloft, and being pelted by corn stalks....fall flying doesn't get much better!

Re: Highland Sun06Sept?

Great to see Mark, Bob, and everyone else yesterday. Fun day of flying with good flights, though Sunny had warned us about "punch in the face" bullet thermals on tow. He was right...that's the first time I ever had my side wires twanged while on tow :shock: ! I packed up and jumped into th...

Re: Flying Friday @ WS April 24?

I was the first one to launch yesterday, and indeed it was very much washing machine, rodeo air. Several times my vario was pegged, but it was exhausting flying. I had had enough after 40 minutes, and headed out to land. It was hard to get down, and landing was an adventure, but I hung in there and ...

Re: Saturday -> April 18, 2015

I will check here in the morning as well and see what people are thinking. I have not flown High Rock, so if I head there I will need to meet Emma Jane, walk the LZ, etc. and yes I have a CL sign off. Hope to see you guys tomorrow.

Re: High Rock Saturday

I'm interested, but it will be my first time there, so I will need a little site briefing, a look at the LZ, etc. Thanks.
