Both tomorrow and Wednesday afternoon look pretty good at Woodstock. I am up for flying either or both days. It has been a long crappy summer with no flying, so ya have to make hay when the sun shines.

Great day at Woodstock today, but rowdy in LZ.
Joe, Gary, Bill from Philly and I flew as long as we wanted.
Joe self-launched first and flew up to Strasburg. Gary next, and I launched at 1:57 PM and flew up to Strasburg and back to Woodstock and was in the air for 1. 53 hrs.
Bill bought a Falcon and self-launched last. All good take offs.
Great ridge lift and thermals up to 787 fpm (10s).
Topped out at 4665 msl.
