Sled Works Aerotow was great! I got there Thurs evening. Friday was the best as far as thermal activity. Temps were mild, very little breeze and the thermals went straight up because of it. Heck... even I was able to stay up! Saturday and Sunday were pretty warm and more breezy but the conditions were still very favorable. This was the third aerotow in a row that the Eaglet got blown over onto its back! No damage, though. It sure was fun flying with old friends and meeting new ones! Thanks to the Sled Works Team for another great event! Lastly, thanks very much again to Wenger for providing the nice trailer for storage. Wenger... you folks are the best!







Sorry to not have more pictures but I was flying a lot and just didn't get 'em!

Len, all of your sailplanes performed well considering the pilot's skills!

Just got back from Oshkosh and realized I hadn't downloaded the photos from Sled 2017.
Thought I would post a few to stir some interest for next. The weather was great and the lift abundant.
See you in 2018

Hi Greg.

Thanks for sharing all the photos, looks like a nice turn out.

One question, was the Aerotow being held at the same time as an Imac event? With all the big aerobatic 3d planes, there must have been a HUCKFEST going on too?

Looking forward to our 6th Sled-Works Aerotow this summer!
