Tuesday fun

Postby Aaron » Tue Nov 20, 2012 2:51 pm

had a full eagle bus going up the hill. it was warm at parma and decently cool at skyport. jumped at 11 and kicked bushes in light light lift. thought it was just early, but it was like this the entire flight. touched 3600 a few times and floated around between thermal factory and cathedral. little john screamed up through me at RR. i guess it wasnt light for him. fun, mellow day just enjoying the view and snapping photos. say cheese!!!!

Fly Above All did Chief again today. Gotta get 'em in before the road closes on Dec 15th! Alli got her first mountain flight and skied out over launch. Nice work! Otis also pulled off a really nice low save halfway to Twin Peaks. Ceiling seemed to be in the mid to high 5s with Robin topping the stack at 5700 and change. That's the first time I've felt the Winter chill in the air at altitude which was exciting! I took a very buoyant glide to Nordhoff ridge after leaving with 5600 and arriving at 4. Easy bounces across to the West end before landing on the Nordhoff baseball diamond. Robin stayed in the air for another 45 minutes enjoying all that Chief has to offer.

We're going to rock it again tomorrow if the current winds aloft forecasts gets updated with lower numbers.
