Woodstock Day Sat28Mar?

Post by markc »

Looking a bit north at the moment, both surface and 3k. But I like that the sfc gust factor is supposed to drop out at 4pm, and that it's supposed to be a full-sun day. Thinking/hoping that valley heating might funnel some good cycles into launch.

Smithsburg also a possibility, but winds look a bit stronger up there, and the sfc gust factor doesn't drop until 6pm. Might not be the best practice day...

Will check again tomorrow AM : Glider on vehicle, hopefully it will be going somewhere :D

The latest updates for both sfc and 3k have improved a bit, and the sfc gusts are supposed to back off at 3pm. Definitely looks worth the drive to me, my ETA will be about 12:30. Hoping for a late-ish afternoon flight. Bacil might swing by, and perhaps a friend of his from NY who's passing through on the way to FL.
