Dickey's or Blue Sky

Post by Joe Schad »

Looks light south to southwest. Maybe a good Dickey's day very likely a good Blue Sky day. Which way?

Beautiful day on Skyline drive with many hikers. I launched about 1pm for a 25 minute flight. Conditions were light and the thermals weak. Spent the most of time between 100 over and 200 below launch with one thermal to 500 over. There was no consistent lift so it was just up and immediately down.
