Funston 7.24.10

Again, Funston delivered some nice, smooth soaring conditions this past Saturday. I am slowly making up for the mediocre flying I've had with my long distance driving / flying trips earlier in the year...

Funston is back to its old reliable self.

Smooth air makes for nice launching conditions...

A good day for the Sport 2...

I opted to fly the Sport 2 in-lieu of the "Flamer"...I love flying both gliders, but appreciate the ease of flying the Sport 2 more in lighter wind conditions...

Mom and Dad had a great time hanging out today watching the flying and people...Dad sitting on the bench.





Ending the day with a nice landing is mandatory. It was a good day boating around Westlake and watching all the other guys chase each other in the air...Sunday is looking similar to Saturday's conditions, so I'll probably head out (again)...

Flight time: 2 hours, 50 minutes (3 flights)
