Looks like Zimmerman did good today but landed early to enjoy the cocktail hour, looks like your are a few behind. Nice flight Sam. Hope it last. Bob

Both Zimmerman and Allison had very good flights yesterday, the triangles were very good working with the wind component. Nice flights.

Well, the boys are learning how to fly a triangle. I take special pride in giving the flight of the day to the guys at Seminole Lake GP. I know Rich gets a bit defensive when I tease him about flying up and down HWY27. Yes, they ridge soar in Florida, right up and down the Florida Ridge elevation 67 feet! Way to go guys glad to see the motorglider group flying triangles.

I do think there will be more flights posted today, right now ZO and the crew from Seminole hold the top spots, but I am most positive there will be another post that may just get the flight of the day. Bob

Yep, as I predicted the boys at Seminole only took second place. Just happen to notice that the top flight was made yesterday from Treasure Coast Soaring Club. Todd Roy in his JS3 did an outstanding triangle yesterday against a wind of 25 knots at times and took first place for the day.

a couple low saves too!

Tony, glad you noticed, we are not a bunch of slouches down here! Some of those guys think that we are new to this, bad assumption. Bob

Looks like Moriarty is beginning to get good and I look forward to seeing many great flights in the months to come.

looks like the guys in Wisconsin had great flights yesterday, wonderful triangles!!!! I thought that I might have a chance at a honorable mention as I flew completely around Lake O again yesterday. Lake O, no easy task with a very strong west wind and trying to avoid the lake shadow. Actually stayed low on the shadow side and got down to 1k on the shadow side only to stick in there and get lucky. Finally got back up and continued homeward where I landed at home and tucked the old girl in the hangar only to get ready for the next adventure.

Looks like the Caesar Creek ridge was working well, great flight.
