    Despite the limitations in place (Airliners overhead at 8 k + Stay West of Hwy 18) one could still find fun inside the box. After a sinky start, I found a solid one near Cloud that took me to 7700′, allowing me to bypass Crestline to glide straight to Pine. I landed at Sunset with a 2 hr 36 min flight. Lots of pilots on Marshall launch around 3 pm, and some flew further and longer.

    Thanks to David for an animation of our flights. And for this picture from my blindspot…2024_10_20_CA_Marshall_Nova_Ion7_Jerome

    Thanks to Jana for taking this short video of me & David, working a light & wide thermal 20 min before sunset.

    It was fun staying on the West side of the 18 and seeing how much ground could be covered.
