Title: An Unexpected Flying Day : Dec 13
Post by: davidk on December 13, 2024, 04:57:26 PM
It was supposed to be high west winds today.  All morning I'm looking out my front window at the sunshine and not seeing a branch move.
Noah was to be at the field around 2:30 with his new F-16 for George to maiden so I took a chance and headed out.
Very little wind today... NW for the most part, some West, but entirely flyable.  Cold, but sunny and little wind.
George did very well with the F-16 and then Noah did beautifully as well.  2 excellent take-offs, flights, and landings.
There was just enough snow on the ground so that landing threw up a little wispy cloud of snow from the wheels and exhaust.
Jeff and Andy few as well and Andy got some great shots today.

A few excellent shots Andy took of my Widgeon.  Such a great moon yesterday.

With a bigger file this would look better... but... amazing editing tools these days.
