Wednesday 26th August - West Winds

Post by tomceunen »

Looked nice today to fly, Tomorrow will be similar and even hotter so I expect higher cloudbase?

Laszlo and I plan to fly. I would love to fly the Pulpit and jump over to Rt 15. Another option is Dickeys Ridge and slalom airtraffic.

Does anybody plan to go to the Pulpit or Dickeys as well?
We might want to solve car issues together.

The Sky wasn't looking as good as yesterday.We launched at 4PM in weak light WNW cross conditions to fly +2h along the ridge boating around with the Bold Eagle and the Turkey Vultures. Nice way to finish the day and bridge the bad weather arriving for the weekend.
