SkySight Soaring Weather Forecasting
Reminds me of decades ago at a contest (nationals?) in Elmira.
We all sat (I was crew) in the main hanger with a tin roof. The speaker phone had a met guy talking about the day's forecast, we had to run the volume up on the speaker phone to hear him due to the pounding rain echoing in the hanger as he pronounced, "clear skies, nice CU, go for speed!". Someone asked him to go look out a window.......a couple minutes later, he stated he needed to review the data...... Windows (of the glass kind, not PC) can be a good thing at times. ;-) LOL...... |
