  • Fun Flying Stuff

    I went out last night after work about 5:30 to fly the 2.5m motorized ASW28 on neighborhood fairway here in Orlando. What do I find but good old Connecticut style lift. Those guys know where to rent the best thermals and they spare no expense if this past week was any example.

    So I'm cruising around after one 30 second motor run and feeling like I'm not doing too bad. I was actually able to do thermal circles inverted for about a minute and a half. About the time I feel pretty good about my ability to work a thermal I have to swerve to dodge a small gator that was going up faster than I was. OK, I made up the gator part up.

    I rolled out and came home after 20 minutes. Good fun for an outing that lasted 30 minutes from leaving to returning to the garage.
