We did a little flying this morning before the wind picked up. After the storm, I discovered whats at the end of the rainbow. The tower on one side and soaring center on the other!

A great day at Sunflower! Patrick flew the first tows with Tony to regain proficiency, then took over the rest of the day. Brandon ran wings.

Kirk and Doug made Hays and back for Gold Distance/Diamond Goal. Kirk also managed Gold Altitude, reaching 13000 feet just after turning Hays.

Rob made his first outlanding in a nice corn stubble field. The retrieve required two trailers but all fun with friends to help.

Tony took Ayden up for an intro flight and they flew the Plevna Kingman triangle then Sterling Plevna and home. Over Sterling they managed 12,100 ft which should just bump up the State record for multiplace Altitude.

Bob had a good flight in his DG300 and then retrieved Rob.

Bob and Mike in the self launchers also had a good time. Bob flew roughly Hays Salina and back for a nice score on WeGlide.

Great spring post frontal day! Can't beat it.
