Funston: 7.28.11 (Total Domination)

The winds looked good today for an after work flight at Funston, so that is where I headed...

When I arrived, gliders were in the air. Enzo was returning from Westlake and Steve was slayin' it on my old Super Sport. I quickly set up my glider and got up in the air. Diev was soon to follow with Brad, Sidewire, and a few others...great time.

The ridge was super buoyant with a lift band that extended way out over the water. The fog layer was at about 500 feet and the air was nice and cool...my favorite conditions to fly in at Funston. As I type this post at 9:45 pm, the ridge is still soarable no doubt.

The Sport 2 at rest...

I shot a few landings and buzzed a few people and had a great time...

1st Flight: 31 minutes
2nd Flight: 1 hour, 5 minutes
3rd Flight: 32 minutes

Friday is looking good, too...see you there!
