    Pilot Crash Protocol:

    If you find yourself crashed on the hillside uninjured, get your wing folded up right away if you can. Text, call, radio or signal the fact that you are ok so emergency responders arent sent on a dry run.

    If youre injured, stay put. Your lack of activity is the signal that you need help. If possible, call or radio for help.

    If youre flying and see a downed pilot, get close enough to determine whether theyre injured or not-(without jeopardizing your own safety) and communicate whether an emergency response is warranted or not. Note details on the crash location; coords, landmark, distance and direction from x……

    If you are unsure if the pilot is injured and there is no apparent movement within a few minutes, 911.

    When in doubt, 911. Now!

    I’d much rather visit a pilot in the hospital, than at their funeral.

    Those woodpeckers fill every open hole with acorns. Theres a 2 inch conduit running vertically the length of the tower. Airsites Bill mentioned new wires couldnt be passed through due to them so we decided to shake it out. Hundreds of acorns came out of the thing once we got them started falling out. After big rain years the number and size of the acorns is amazing. I can only guess the woodpeckers find themselves in a heaven where the streets are paved with acorns and all they have to do is find a place to put the things.AliBaba

    Monday 7-12 could use some help getting the excavations cleaned up and ready for rebar, concrete and anchor bolts.

    Any time this week someone could get a 1 ponnd box of TSP and a brush. Need to and wash the oil off the steel column material staged behind the glider boxes so we can prime/paint them after welding. We have a couple long garden hoses to get water to that point.

    Also can get the ends of the columns prepped  for welding with a grinder. A 1/4 inch bevel is plenty. same bevel needed on the column caps- the small plates cut and laying next to the column pile.

    rebar and bolts arrive tuesday and if youre up for setting up rebar and bolt templates on wednesday, gimme a call. 909 226 3331

    those white pipes were used by MWD to fill temporary water tanks filled by water trucks to replace ground water lost during construction of the 10 ft diam tunnel bored pipeline. MWD helicoptered them out when the const was complete. Kevin Williams gathered them up in hoping they could be used for future projects.

    The old old system used black 1.5 in diam pipe that got burned in the 03 fire. I think there was like a couple thousand feet of it too.

    Radio was to aid in students DBF approach. Previous flight was uneventful but a bit short.
