The Flyskyhy developer is very responsive to emails and a nice guy too. Name is René. Might be worth reaching out to him to see if this is on his list of to-dos.
David WebbGeneral MemberHahahaha – all I heard was “YAAAAHHHOOOOOOOOO”
David WebbGeneral MemberFrom my very first piloting days, I owe many comfortable and educational rides up to launch to this vehicle. Let us all salute the Subaru and bid it a fond farewell – may orange fuel ever run through its veins.

Track Log here, plus proof that the lake and my feet exist:
David WebbGeneral MemberWow – just read the linked Wikipedia article above about JCM Farming. Their property sounds comically well-fortified. Perhaps the author wasn’t aware of the hidden sharks with frikkin laser beams:
Press reports indicate the Oasis Ranch facility was built in 1999 on 24 acres and is surrounded by a 24-foot wall 14-feet thick.[4] Other defenses include a partial moat, guard dogs, armed guards and video cameras. The compound includes two large buildings and a Moorish-style bell tower. The company describes the ranch as “an eighty-acre olive farm.”[1] Other documents indicate the farm is in fact a “Private Event and Meeting Center” — “a respite for and marketed to State Departments, foreign dignitaries, diplomats, Fortune 500 executives and their boards, ultra high net worth individuals and their families and celebrities.”[4]

David WebbGeneral MemberI’m sure there are many other factors at play here that are causing tension, but a small idea/suggestion that might be part of a larger solution:
Perhaps some of the Redlands Airport crew would like to post in our Pilot Alerts & TFRs forum when they are having any operations that might have heavier air traffic around that area? Even if it’s not to the level of an official NOTAM, it would be a good heads up for freeflight pilots to steer well clear of that area.
David WebbGeneral MemberSold!
David WebbGeneral MemberLooks like I got a shot of the recent carpet repairs along with the morning crew setting up.
David WebbGeneral MemberWas a good day – better than predicted. Few of us went up to Crestline before 9 for a morning flight. Unsure if it would switch in time, as the models were conflicted on that, but around 9:30, some nice light cycles were starting to come in consistently. Fairly bumpy for the season and time of day, I thought, but easy lift on the back ridge. Headed forward to give time to retrieve vehicles.
Back up to Crestline on the noon Sandy Van – 2 loads with hangs and PGs. Light conditions still made for easy launching. Looking out to the horizon, it looked like the whole site was in the middle of the inversion.
Pretty rowdy conditions for the afternoon – definitely a workout. Topped out just over 6k and bounced around for 2.5 hours. Flew to Pine and found it just as rowdy over there, so didn’t stick around. Conditions started to mellow just after 3 and had several long, smooth climbs late in the day. Lift everywhere.
David WebbGeneral MemberThis one’s been….. handled.

Track log of some of us enjoying the rare conditions, plus a bonus picture of snowy Mt. San Jacinto:
David WebbGeneral MemberPerhaps, if you’re into those kinda shows. Would be easier than typing, I guess, but maybe slightly harder to post since you’d have to upload the video somewhere. Chalk it up to personal preference – I lean towards text since I can consume it quicker, but to each his/her own.
David WebbGeneral MemberApply product directly to head.
