Awesome outlook Steve. True sportsman there. Thanks. I am just sorry I didn't notice sooner that another buddy, Bob Holliday, was out on a free distance run, too. Check other thread for his SPOT and progress. I think he is in his PIK, but oculd be in his his ASG, as he has a towplane. Currently, KSA towplanes are both down. :-( Steve |

Tony Condon is on a downwind dash from Wellington, KS. Last I heard, goal was somewhere in Texas. Cloud base should be pushing 7000 AGL, and tailwinds in excess of 30 knots. B/S ratio forecast is pretty low, but I have flown on similar sorts of days and found the lift to be very good. Will see how it turns out for him! Feel free to spend the rest of your afternoon watching his progress instead of working. http://share.findmespot.com/shared/f...08EyO4mMDp hc Steve Leonard Stuck in the office... |
