Another day in paradise by
F.L. Whiteley
Lift was consistent for over five hours today, starting about 11:30am. It
reached as much as 10kts by 3pm. Bases about 13,500.
Not bad for late February in north central Colorado. Even the club
president came by and drove the winch for a while.

ailerons than the contemporary...
