    “Oh dang! I guess if you can post a photo like that, it doesn’t matter how it’s being funded at all.”

    You see Linda, even at night it is shadowy.

    As you were

    Isn’t it better to be outgoing than withdrawn?

    Bille,
    Each leg has meaning so this is in keeping with the topic.
    Since you are well-grounded I’ll call you lightning legs Bille from now on.
    Cheers,

    The name-calling and direct insults are very unbecoming and uncalled for. No matter how much you disagree with somebody, there is always a better way to deal with the situation, especially as one of our club representatives.

    It is possible that one party to the conversation may have been sick with COVID-19 for the second time in under a year and their normally civil and relaxed manners were temporarily absent. Just something to consider. I have had enough people explode at me and make false accusations right to my face that I have tried to learn to step back and look for the underlying message and ignore the mode of delivery at least for the time it takes to determine what they may be concerned about. Once I have acknowledged that I heard their true concern they usually stop the overt attack.

    Just a few things to consider. Thanks.

    It should last because I bought an airport-quality windsock, which I donated to the club. Enjoy!

    Thank you, Esquire!

    I was expecting a photo of the legendary chase driver from Ojai.

    Will there be a TFR or NOTAM?
    I hope you realize that you have just invited pilots to overfly with cameras ready.
    If I catch the garland does that mean I can have an extra wife?
    Inquiring pilots wish to know!

    “wasn’t coded well enough to prevent it from being gamed.”

    No one ever asked for / mentioned any kind of need for verification of associate member signups.

    That may be the fattest rattler I’ve ever seen. Did it swallow a large rabbit or coyote pup whole?
    Motivation to reach the LZ on glide or graded areas rather than brush.

    Paul was one of those truly special individuals and will be greatly missed.

    Congratz to David on a new altitude PB for for the OnR flight. Thanks for the report as always, Jerome. I accomplished something fun on Saturday when I flew over the R/C glider crew at Sky Park (Santa’s Village) and yelled down to get my photo and meet me on RCGroups.com. I posted a couple of frame stills on the Inland Slope group and got some nice photos in return.
