Saturday Florida Flying (same post as on CHGA list)

[Paul Tjaden]

Marc F. made it down late yesterday and he, Mitch Shipley, Lauren, a couple of other new friends and I terrorized the local Buzzards and vultures for about an hour and a half this afternoon over Quest. Maximum climb was taken by the Sky Goddess with about 3,500 and I may have gotten the duration FOD of 1:36 cause I launched first and we all got flushed at about the same time when some high cirrus shut us down. Lots of fun but with a blue sky and most of the lift stopping around 3K, we were all happy to stay near the field.

Tomorrow looks a bit better for XC. Maybe I can pimp off of Mitch and learn something.
