Wave over Appalachian ridge 19 December
It's a blue day at Moriarty, but the sounding indicates the distinct
possibility of wave.* I think I'll give it a try...

Wave over Appalachian ridge 19 December
We used to have an official FAA approved "Wave Window" here at Ridge Soaring Gliderport, in central Pennsylvania. The altitude record was slightly more than 39,000 feet MSL.
Most of the time it is used to travel fast / far long distance flights up to, but mostly below 18,000 feet. Tom Knauff

Wave over Appalachian ridge 19 December
Winds out of the west southwest at 82 knots right now around Moriarty at
18,000'.* I think I'll stay on the ground today.
