Yesterday was pretty good, and it looks like it will be the rest of the week. After an hour and a half, I was the only one flying, got bored, and landed. Thanks to Gene for the ride to launch.

Looked like the smoke was into the stratosphere when I drove down the 10.

Fun fly-in! Thanks Kathy, and all who helped make it happen!

Wow Linda, sounds like you need a flight. There wasn’t any anger or hatred in this thread, just questions.

Hey John & Ken,

With the high fire danger using a metal blade, or any kind of blade, is very risky and I would not want to be that guy. One of the latest local fires was caused by someone doing weed abatement and it sounded like he was going to be charged for the costs and or fined. The weeds don’t bother the hang gliders, and cut weeds can be a hazard to paragliders if not cleaned up thoroughly, which is pretty much impossible.

Looking forward to seeing you guys this weekend.

But, but… whose pond is it then? I was under the impression, and I believe many others were too, that the CCR was donated to CSS. Please clarify.
