Some PG Pics : Sat Oct 08 : Woodstock

Post by markc »

I took a few pics yesterday/Saturday at Woodstock, but they are limited to the first PG pilot after I arrived (Krista) and the last PG pilot after I landed (Jim C). Wish I had more... But after hauling the glider in, and then much hemming/hawing on my part regarding conditions, I just didn't get anyone else, sorry about that.

Also very cool to see a PG tandem flight, but didn't get that either, sigh! :roll:

Krista's pics first.
Krista eyes the winds in the slot.

And likes what she sees!

Next up : Some pics of Jim C's landing. Will have to see how the portrait-mode rotations turn out....

It was very cool to see some sailplane towing activity, literally right over the LZ. Perhaps from the old Skyline Soaring Assn site, from years back??
Jim circling the field as a sailplane tows up (well) above him.
