Flying 9/4

Post by **silverwings** » Mon Sep 04, 2006 8:53 am

I am up for flying today, any other takers? Could be doable at Pulpit, High Rock, Ridgely, Woodstock. (202)409-2574 c.

I'm on the fence... Winds look pretty light, so perhaps another Pulpit day
in spite of the NW cross? Or maybe gamble on late day magic at High
Rock, if it stays sunny?

Just called Highland Aerosports and its clear there. I have decided to give Ridgely a try and probably have dinner before heading back (hopefully to avoid some of the traffic).

Small turn out to sunny then becoming mostly cloudy conditions. Fairly light lift (mostly) with flights ranging from 1 hour to less. I got 40 minutes (after release) on my flight and got one nice, stronger thermal from 1500 AGL to 3900 as well as lighter stuff. Traffic going East over the bridge at noon was minimal and coming back (after dinner) at 8:30 was also moving good.
