5-18/19 Weekend update

Sat 5/18

Good soaring today and some more spring-check rides completed.

John Watkins and Paul Happ both completed their spring check-out’s with Jerry. Jerry also gave an intro lesson to a potential new member from West Windsor.

B9, IC, i1, VOL and the 1-34 all had nice long soaring flights today also with good streeting and lift to a 7k. Greg Hunter had another 5+ hour flight (two weekends in a row), found some weak wave close to Ascutney and got to 9,200 ft!

While we haven’t had the driest of starts to the Spring soaring season, we are getting some good flying if you can pick you days. So, if you haven’t been out to the field yet, watch the weather and come out and fly!

Sun 5/19

Perhaps not a flying but, it’s dry and Bill is out working on the 2-33 refinish, spraying silver on the tail-feathers today.
