Default New Year's Day soaring?

Absolutely fly every January 1.
This year at Williams Glider Port I flew the MDM-1 FOX. Loops, full
rolls, humpty bumps, half-cubans, reverse half-cubans, shark's tooth,
snap rolls, clover leafs...does it get any better?

Back in the "Good Olde Days", we used to fly nearly every Jan 1st in southern Michigan, frequently with plenty of snow on the ground, and sometimes in the air. Does anybody still do this? It only counts if it's difficult! Floridians need not apply.


Jack, I don't know what your doing but the "good old days" are still alive in
Southern Michigan. Sandhill Soaring did a bunch of flights out of Richman field
on New Years Day. My Great Nephew got a 1200' gain on one of his flights!!!! Great way to start the year.
Come join us Jack and on 1/1/2014 you can fly!!!!!!
