Alby at Jean
Shad has landed safely with Alby at Coyote Run, however he managed to
land on the pipeline clearing on the east side of the gliderport, on
the wrong side of the fence, and faces a short but challenging
"retrieve". CH reports his ground crew in Kingman.
Regardless, nice flight, Shad! Flying across the Colorado River valley
is not an easy thing to do, even on good days. It is almost always a
big blue sinkhole where the top of lift never exceeds 6k. (Today's 2PM
NAM shows the -3 at 5k -- ouch.) So, that was a nice accomplishment.
Looking forward to the pilot's report!
