Was glad there was no granite clouds hiding in front of me, but wind is starting to get unstable so I'll be parking for the night.

Silly me, I thought the weather couldn't get better than yesterday during a test run to the coast, Imagine my surprise when I awoke to a better than picture perfect day. Makes me wish I was there instead of home where it's 90+ and storming. I hope lightening doesn't take my power out today, I'd hate to lose this wonderful flying weather.

Thanks guys, it was fun to be involved in an event that REQUIRES activities pilots perform: homework, bookkeeping, equipment usage and luck. Quite a nice change from the slaved GPS 'set and forget' autopilot races I'm so used to participating in.
My thanks to the organizers, and drinks all around !
