Re: Woodstock 9/22 - 9/23
I will keep my eyes opened to this possibility.
I teach on Thursdays evenings
So only go flying on Thursdays if the conditions are really compelling
Fridays are easier to me

flight compilation
2021 was a very odd year: pandemic, HG accident, new glider, personal challenges, etc.
In order to make this fall more palatable to me, the daughter of friend created a clip compilations most of my 2021 flights as b-day gift
Enjoy!

It was nice to see so many HG pilots. I think I was the 3rd to take off (after Mark and Tom). The conditions at the launch were weak. I had to wait a little bit until I was confident to take off. Fortunately, I run a lot since the slot was kind of empty. I had not problems to gain the ridge. As Dave...
