Whole Lotta K in the USA
Looks like yesterday was a pretty spectacular (if challenging) day in
the Mid-Atlantic states. I see a bunch of 1000K plus flights on the OLC, and am aware of at least one or two potential records. Any narrative from the participants (I was locked in an interior, windowless conference room)? P3 |

P3 congrats to everyone out there, looks like some amazing flights. I noticed several of them climbed to above 10,000 feet at one point. Was there wave or something working in a certain area? It seemed at my quick glance that these climbs were all in the same area. Nice to see a bunch of US pilots in the daily top 10 on OLC. |

Yes, there were some pretty nice flights. 3 pilots at our club (JL, OS, TA) all did declared 500K triangles, a huge deal for us flatlanders, only to find them completely overshadowed by ridge- runners in Pa and NJ - no fair! ;-).

Tony, The satellite loops (which I unfortunately COULD see from my windowless conference room) showed tremendous wave activity through the eastern states, from New York all the way down through Tenessee.
