Re: Bill's Sunday
Velocity looks good for HG will you be bringing that or only the PG?
However cloud cover looks to be persistent and very low... I might give it a go if it gets better

Re: Bill's Sunday
Interested. I would like a to get 2 or more short flights for takeoff, pattern and landing practice. Maybe some other H2s would like to go?

Forecast is looking better-- only 30 percent chance of rain-- and mostly in the morning. Right now I'm planning on only bringing the PG.

Re: Bill's Sunday
Be aware that there is still high grass in LZ. From launch, the left cut out is mowed but only to the top of the hill. I think the fields across the road may be fine.

Re: Bill's Sunday
It's probably going to be too light for HG and cloudy - no thermals. I'll stay home tomorrow.
Yeah, the grass was high last time in the main LZ so I landed across the street, plenty space there.

Re: Bill's Sunday
The surface forecast has changed from calling for rain in the morning to possible rain in the afternoon. That's a little discouraging. So is the idea that the ground might be wet which is a problem for setting up a PG. On the other hand it's been a while for me and any safe flight would be a good one. I'll wait to hear from Matthew.
Re: Bill's Sunday
The entire mid-Atlantic is decked over in low clouds -- chance of rain throughout the day is up to 70 percent. So I'm bailing on Bill's. Might go kayaking in the rain.
