Default Ridge flights

There were some nice flights on the Pennsylvania ridges yesterday including a 700K by Ron Schwartz in a 1-26.

No OLC posting but got a ride in the back seat of KS Thursday... Eagle
Field - Tazwell VA and return (1000km or so) in 7.5 hours and we were
playing around on the way home. On the ground by 3:30. I only almost
landed us out once! Thanks for a once in a lifetime experience Karl!
