Highland this weekend?

Post by darbbb »

Look like Highland hasn't posted their daily Facebook weather report since Monday. Are they in FL this week, does anyone know? Yes, I can call, :P but also wondering if I might see some of you out there this weekend.

Aw crap, I forgot about the days they are closed. Nevermind. :oops:

But still would like to see some ppl out there if anyone's planning to go and the WX holds.

I'm thinking of giving Highland a try on Sat (then perhaps Daniels on Sun). Planning on a fairly early arrival, so I can knock off a few tows before things start cookin'.

I wonder if anyone flew today at Woodstock?

Still heading for Highland, but planning on a later arrival than originally... Looks N@10 early, which isn't much fun. Hoping that the forecasted lighter 3k winds and the swing to the E will both materialize!

Good day at Highland today, especially given the marginal forecast. About 8 pilots out there giving it a try. Great to see Sunny and Adam and Jim after a long winter! I had maybe 1:15 on my first flight, topping out at 3500 (inversion). Second flight was just for kicks, but it turned out to be maybe 30 minutes more, in super light thermals.Very fun to be back in the towing groove. We all hung out and had a few brews, until sunset or so. Great start to anothergreat Highland year!
