Back in the sky...finally

Post by Paul Tjaden »

Had a nice two hour flight at Quest today. Ophelia has been screwing with us for over a week but she finally moved north and today was pretty good. Wasn't planning on flying cause Dr. Jack said it was going to be crappy but at about 2:00 Kevin Carter, Mitch Shipley and a couple of others started setting up and, of course, I couldn't let them fly without me. Turned out that Dr. Jack didn't know squat and we had nice flights with gains to nearly 4,500'

Tomorrow looks even better so plans for an XC are on. Lauren flew her new Litespeed three times this AM before the sky turned on but then had to stop due to a HUGE reaction to some fire ant bites she got while waiting to launch. Hopefully she'll be better by tomorrow so she can finally get a soaring flight in on her new toy.

Hope you guys are having another good weekend.

Paul
