Smithsburg St. Patty Day

Post by Richard Hays »

Took class out there on St. Patricks Day ( Wed. ) Perfect conditions. About 70 degrees. NNW to WNW and NW. Max. velocity about 6mph but generally lighter. All students got 7 or more flights....mostly from the top. One mishap on last flight for 1st day'er resulting in munched downtubes and a bruised ego. Otherwise...a-ok. Got that "left-right" thing mixed up. LOL ( the student that is...lol ).

One student ( Chris ) was on his second day and flying smoothly from the top! All stand up landing too!

Nice to be out again. Field in great condition. No mud. Lots of snow still seen on Whitetail.
