Re: Diary of an XC Virgin
Thanks for taking the time to read and respond guys. I am having a great time down here. I have updated my Blog with the adventures from Day 3. what do you classify as STRONG lift.........
Re: Diary of an XC Virgin
I keep thinking you are going to fall down and then you write up another amazing flight! Great going. After the comp you must submit this to the USHPA magazine. Your writing skills are excellent but more importantly many pilots that have similar experience could learn from this and see how much fun competing really is. Again great job, I'll see you on Friday.

Matt,
I do not even HG, but your posts are superb and compelling reading. I am sure the USHPA magazine would be interested, so maybe you should follow up on Larry's idea when you get back. Meanwhile, Have a great time; I look forward to reading about it some more.
