Re: Friday Flying
I'm hoping for flyable conditions on Sunday somewhere. Need some airtime, but can't get off early enough tomorrow and Saturday is booked with catering events for the next two weeks.
Pulpit Friday
Looks like the Pulpit. ETA 4pm. Assume the grass is still high. So be ready to land in the secondary. I'm briniging the bag-wing.

Re: Friday Flying
The mountain outlook for this weekend isn't great (at least for those of us who
never got their SNP permits for 2008), so I'm thinking of taking a half-day off
on Friday.
Some 'casts are calling for a window of WNW 8-9 mph from 1pm to 3pm,
followed by W 8-9 mph from 4pm to 6pm. Then swinging SW.
With a nice sunny day, there might be some straight-in cycles even
during the later afternoon timeframe. And: High Rock is closer; there
are no LZ issues to contend with; it beats happy hour in a bar somewhere!
So.... Anyone else thinking of giving the Rock a shot?
Matthew & Karen, any chance of convincing you to give the plumbing a
try rather than the bags?

Re: Friday Flying
Ugh. Forecast now is light WSW.

Re: Friday Flying
Yeah, I want fly somewhere today, but all I'm seeing is WSW maybe swinging W for a few hours.
Re: Friday Flying
I'll be at Ridgely. ETA 6 pm. Gonna camp out and get drunk, hopefully not all by myself, that would be quite sad
