Hyner for Memorial Day Weekend
The forecast looks pretty good for the weekend for flying there. We are going to arrive on Friday. Any other takers?

Re: Hyner for Memorial Day Weekend
Friday turned out to be too windy. Pilots flew Saturday, Sunday, and Monday with some soaring each day. A lot depended on your timing and how well you used lift when encountered. I personally soared Saturday and Sunday some with hg and some with pg. Monday turned out really nice for Charley doing a flight about 11:00 and then conditions got more challenging and I had a lawn dart to the LZ about 1:30. We left at at 2:30 and no one had flown after my flight but it might have improved. Over all fairly nice weather there.

Here is a short video from Memorial Day weekend. I have only flown Hyner a few times so it was exciting to finally climb above launch.
I can't get the video to embed properly, so here is the link.

Very cool Charley! Thanks for sharing. I've yet to go up to Hyner, looks like a nice place.
