Funston: 8.1.11

Conditions looked good for a trip to Funston on Monday...besides I had to pick-up my Sport 2 for the coming weekend trip to Yosemite.

The air was light, but buoyant, so I launched and boated around for 15 minutes.

Sidewire insisted on me flying his glider (T2C) and he flying my Sport 2. I told him no...this ACP does not share gliders. He was upset, but later got over it. I think we're still friends.

After 15 minutes I landed...

I really wanted to fly down to the base of Westlake again, but opted to keep my XC flying to just the ridge and a nice top landing.

I ordered some new lower sidewires and a new bright lime-colored nose cone for the Sport 2 today, as well...

If you don't own a Sport 2, go buy one now...end of story...just go get one. They are a great glider to fly and compliment the T2C really well.

ACP out...
