Default Mt Washington -- The climb that goes to 11

A little tiny bit of what happened on Sunday, 10/10/10 at our Mt

for the ride:

Too bad!

We had airspace open to 30K at Mt Wash, and used most of it :-).

I was 20K+, three days in a row. I know of a couple of flights of at
least 26K. Not sure who had the best.

and half from release.

Bravo! Thanks so much for sharing. It is so amazing to experience
extended double digit climbs (in terms of knots).

Evan,

I've seen my 302 with the indicator needle over on that side of the
dial, too.

Except mine was in the negative range and the sound wasn't nearly as
pleasant...

Looks like a fun time was had by you and the Twenty!
