Look-n sweet for Friday!!! North all day. It doesn't get much better than this. My new wing could be here by then yahoo #$$%%(#()#_$+_+$ YAHOO?$*%&^%^#$*
still have to repack my reserve though. Should be a bunch of guys there. Pretty light winds all day. We'll be having students launch near the end of the day.
Should be glassy smooth. Even Jack E should like it.

OOPs,,,,,, up date, X-C skies is predicting more wind than Us airnet 12 mph that could make a difference. It's unusual for Xc skies to be this much higher then Us airnet which is always predicting more wind. IT's still a few days out , watch and see.

PS. WE should be leaving for Boone NC this weekend for the Comp in North Carolina. It runs from Sunday to Sat. I will be fly-n the DElta, Racing against comp wings oooh yah looking forward to that! Like to see how well the new craft keep up .. I'll post here as usual.

Everyone is predicting lighter winds than -X-C skies ..... Hope they are correct . Wonderground is saying 4-6 mph .. Airnet is similar ... X-C is saying 10-12mph ?
Looks perfect at L-gap now. Look at the sky now big cummies. Where is my wing??
