Re: Bill's Sunday 4/27
it is indeed looking best there, although sky cover may be an issue.
i'll be in cumberland at an event from 10-1. i'll check after i am done to see if anyone is flying bill's before driving back.

I plan to fly at Bills Sunday. Looks like the sunny skies have given way to clouds, but no rain, so perhaps a repeat of 3 weeks ago? One can only hope.

Re: Bill's Sunday 4/27
Another great day at Bill's--
Mixed bag of sleds, extendos and thermal flights early--- then it turned on BIG TIME a little after 5pm. Got up to 1000 over, flew down to the turnpike and back in my bag and top landed after 1:10 so I could Observe Kathy C. and New Dan in HGs. Both had good launches and Kathy got in a few passes along the ridge. Other HGs included Carlos, Pete L., Larry Huffman, Pat Brooks, Gardinator, Shawn Ray, David C. and a H2 from Hyner.
PGs included Ellis, Karen, Charlie, Lazlo, Florent, Ron, David from Laurel, Juanito, taking his kids on tandems, and Juaninto's wife Cynthia.
This is twice now it's turned on at Bill's at around 5pm. So if you go to Bill's and you leave early, you're making a big mistake.

Hey everyone, H2 Dan here.
Just thought I'd share this pic I took on Sunday.
Not sure who the pilot is but I'm sure you all will know.
It was cool to see so many wings out there! Enjoy.
PS - If this is you and you want the high-res version, PM me.
