Starting to eye things a bit..... Hoping the casts don't swing more SW....

Though the possible W window looks more like noon to 3pm to me?

Ok 12 PM. Anyone else interested? Might be a good lighter air day similar to last weekend.

Three pilots is kinda light, would be good to hear from a couple others who are considering Sunday!

Hey guys,
I am looking at the Pulpit today too. Does anybody know what the current status of the secondary LZ is (cut and landable or tall grass / crops) ?

Thanks,
Jon

Haven't walked it recently Jon, but I *think* there was a cut section not in crop. At least it looked that way from launch a.couple weeks ago.

Annual family beach trip in SC for me now...
Walt landed at main LZ at Pupit for two weeks ago. Assume it is still good.
Understand Bluesky was good yesterday, Saturday. Any write ups?

Awesome Mark thank you. If you guys are still interested then I will head up there as well with an ETA at launch about 1230.
If people aren’t heading to Pulpit anymore then I’ll probably migrate south and head to Blue Sky.

Thanks,
Jon

Already blowing in WSW 9 with gusts to 13. Add some thermals....looks like it could be nice.

Without at least five pilots it will be difficult to get everyone flying.

Sorry, I am out for today.

Charley had to bail, and Rich B had plans, so we decided to pull the plug...
