Flying Fri17Jun?

Post by markc »

If I can get in early to work tomorrow, I might then be able to
leave early for a quick run up to High Rock. The 'cast is for
10-15 WNW in the afternoon, then 5-10 NW at 7:00pm. Anyone
want to give it a try?

Sunset isn't until 8:30. If you are in the DC area, summer days
like this are a great chance for weekday flying without having to
take any time off!

Call me on my cell if you're heading out tomorrow; I don't know if I'll
have time to fly (have an 8:30 appointment), but I could come out to
take pictures, shuttle before you fly, etc.

Another TFR?

Post by Flying Lobster »

I also found a TFR on the net, maybe a little more restrictive?
