Thinking of going out for a few training runs. Anybody up for it? Looking good out there today. I would like to have some other pilots there but may go alone later in the after noon if no one is interested.

Well, I should of went this morning when the winds were right for OR...I chose to do some work and go later in the day, the forecast looked to be ENE all day, it's now gone W. What the hell?
Oh well, next time I'll know better.
Perhaps next time someone else will join in and make it more fun anyways.

OK, so probably weather.com got their data all wrong (again...).
I'll go anyways and check it out.
May be a good day for training after all.

Got to Oregon ridge around 4:15. Got 4 little flights in, lots of waiting in between. Weird, changing conditions...made for some nice fast flying.
Lots of nice people around at times.
By 7 PM I was packing and got home exactly 4 hours later than I left. Not a bad turnout. .
Oregon Ridge is an interesting site to say the least!
I uploaded a short video of one of the flights.

This would be more fun with more pilots! 8)
