Ridgely Thursday

Post by stevek »

Numbers. John Simon and I got to 7k. It was 27 degrees up there. Right nippy. Great climb rates -- I saw 6 to 6.5 on the averager at times. John said he had 7 for a while. Bases were probably 7500.

I knew i should have been there. I was afraid to call to see how it was. Next time, I will listen to that inner voice that says GO FLYING.... Christian

Wow, That sounds great (except for the cold air!). Save some of that for the ECC.
So did you guys go anywhere?

Hi Paul,
No we didn't. I could see the beach from Ridgely and the streets reached all the way there. I think you could have flown out and back pretty easily. Only about 8-12 mph at altitude.
