Interesting teaching day-Hardy Hill

Post by Richard Hays »

Headed up to Hardy Hill ( Glen got his H-1 rating from it so we named it
after him.. ) and found the wind straight in. But...by the time we set up
the new Falcon2 225 it had crossed signifgantly from the SSW. Eventually
some launch windows allowed some flights for all of us, and we amused the
numerous Bovine whom we had to chase away from the LZ so that we could land
safely. Curious buggers' they are! LOL.

Yanni whined like a 'girlie mon' about the larger wing being "too big" but
after he had some great flights and landings with it, he changed his tune.
Being a 250+pound pilot...he was thrilled by how much easier it landed
compared to the Falcon2 195 at his wing loading. And...got the longest
flight of the day too.

Considering Saturdays' forecast, I'm glad we headed out today. Good time had
by all -including the cows.
