Hellam Hill Saturday fun

Post by Richard Hays »

Started out at Oregon Ridge but with the strong North cross decided to run
up to Hellam Hill, in York, Pa.

Good decision, as it was blowing straight in at about 10 mph. Set up the
225 and the 170. Awesome day. Everyone flew as much as they could, and Karl
and Joel got their H-1 ratings. Way to go guys. NOTE: Joel got his H-1; this
being his SECOND lesson. Look out Kevin Carter. LOL. Bacil...this kid is
good; but make sure his head doesn't get too big, ok?

Perfect day. Conditions anywhere from calm to cookin'. I spent alot of
time whacking down sticker bushes that had sprung up here and there on the
slope ( in between flights ).

Glen got some really good flights in too. I grabbed a couple myself and a
good time was had by all.

Talked to the owner for awhile at the end of the day. He' s still very cool
with us being there. I offered to mow the pasture if he needed help, etc.
and gave him my business card.
