Looks like the weather this weekend is going to cooperate. We've decided to do a two day flying session, so FRI and SAT we will be towing in Salem.

Come on out and get some late season fun under your belt. Warm up for Williamsport too.

Hi Don,
Possibly doing a two day tow, maybe FRIDAY and SATURDAY.
waiting until later in the week for weather reports

[Gliderhead]

Awaiting the word on aero-tow this weekend. Gliders need air-time.

[Steve P]

We'll definitely put a day together based on the forecast. Saturday or Sunday.

Are there any plans for flying Labor Day weekend?

[Steve P]

Don - There will be a brief session on Sunday from 10 to about 1 mostly to have Pit Crew Len tune the carbs on my Bidules. I think Bob Morrow may be planning to stay longer with his tug.

[Gliderhead]

Any towing in the forecast ??

Thanks guys for the invite and tows.... I had a total blast! Monday was the best of the weekend.

WOW.... On my goodness.
What a day today was, ( Monday ) July 3

Today Scot, me and Gunny where there to fly in PERFECT weather. Warm, sunny and beautiful sky. Lift was crazy. The Quintus was my sailplane of choice today with Scot flying his Arcus while Gunny guided his 1/3 scale 2-33 from thermal to thermal.

At one point, the Quintus was just about in the landing pattern when we hooked a thermal and took it up to about 3000 ft. Crazy lift!!!

Thanks to all that came out to fly with us over the last three day, and thanks to Bob and Gunny for Lunch's

Great day in Salem today......good weather, wind down the runway, and occasional clouds.

Lots of thermals and great flights.

Many thanks to Len and Scot for all the tows !

Oops. After four years without so much as a scratch, the wing finally gave out. It wasn't even all that hard of a landing (sorry no footage). Just super glad it failed on the ground & not 1000 feet up. Should be an easy repair...

[TomTerrific?]

Yes, great Fun had by all. Thanks for all the Tows Len and Scott. Good seeing and flying with everyone.

Maiden of the Rodellmodel ASK-21 went well. Plane is very easy to fly and thermal. A little fiberglass, epoxy, and tlc will have it nicely back on-line after a topsy-turvy crosswind launch.

Gunny's expression pretty much says it all.
