Thanks Mitch for the info. I’ll swing by and swap stories at O’Hara’s sometime soon. I’ll fly Elsinore at some point.

Thanks Nate,

I learned to fly in Santa Barbara at a time when we didn’t have a decent LZ, so I was pretty comfortable landing on a brush and boulder covered postage stamp with a steep uphill slope. You’re right, Andy Jackson is like LAX by comparison. I hooked up with an instructor there and spent Last Saturday on the training hill. Then hopped off Marshall on Sunday and again yesterday. While far from perfect, my landings are precisely where I intend, due to my history.

I’m in no rush to fly Elsinore as Crestline is a great fit for now. Down the road, when I’m looking for something new, I’ll check it out. There’s so much to explore around Crestline. No doubt it will keep me busy for some time.
