PG - Saturday 11 June

Post by pink_albatross »

Any P2s who want to come out and fly on Saturday, give me a call Friday evening (or Saturday at 7:00 am) to coordinate. Looks doable right now.
In any case I plan to head out to fly on Saturday (not Sunday).

(If it looks like it is WSW, it will be a Dickey's day, i.e. not P2)

btw, just to make sure that P2s are not discouraged by my lack of response to Ben's question. I sent him my cell via PM.

Oh... and if you're an advanced H2, I'd be happy to observe you, too. Some restrictions apply :-)

I'm considering head to Daniels with the PGers. Looks like it will at least be sleddable with maybe a nice window around noon and I'll take what I can get this time of year. Ellis says she'll observe if I'm there and ready by 11:30am. Anyone other HGs thinking about it? My car can't make it up to launch so I'll have to figure something out.

Jesse

p.s. Ellis, I'll give you a call to confirm later tonight or tomorrow AM.

Note: Dickeys Ridge is on Skyline drive and you must previously have submitted the appropriate paper work to the park service to get a pass to fly there (and only H3/P3 or above)! If Daniels then P2/H2 with observer is needed.

I'm bailing on Daniels Saturday because of the forcasted light winds and rain. Going to watch the bicycle race in Clarendon instead.
