Florida Ridge (Day 1)

I watched the tug and gliders drifting backward at the top of tows this morning.  Definitely not a good sign.  Kerry, the tug pilot said it was really blowing up high.


Derrick, Zippy, and I as the elected safety committee decided to cancel the day shortly after reviewing the forecast, measuring wind speeds, and Derrick took a quick test flight in the tug.  The forecast looks windy for a couple more days.  :-(

Some pilots went paddling at Fisheating Creek while others stayed for yet another excellent session on XC flying and racing by Mike Barber.

This is Larry on the practice day.
