Bills Friday?

Post by Paul D »

After missing out on two or three great-looking days. I hope to get to Bills tomorrow - Friday May 6; whether you are coming from east or west, hope some folks can get out there...

Bills on Fraiday

Post by Paul D »

I was the the only one there except for some spring turkey hunters who hung around to watch. There was persistent thin to moderate cirrus overcast, no cu's, and cooler than Pittsburgh; upper 50's. Didn't look so great but there was wind; east at 5 to 15, occasionally 20.

It was typical Bill's - you could stay up only if you did all the right things with the stingy ridge lift and small thermals; I didn't, for a 12 min flight.

Oh well, better than a day at work...
