Sean and I are coming down to fly Mustang tomorrow. Probably be there around three. Oh, and A.J. Frye should be there, too.

Flying over the Holidays

Post by Eric » Wed Nov 24, 2010 9:08 am

Wish you guys luck on The Mustangs today, looks breezy? (14 GUST TO 28MPH) It`s only a prediction, this time of the year it does gets windy in the Sonotia valley. Hope it let`s up before dark?

Friday looks like a Miller day to me?
Thought we caught the last one of the year a couple of weeks ago?
It will be high pressure building so top of lift won`t be as high. East all day!
I`ll be going flying some where.
Any interest give me a call 405-3814.

I'll shovel snow Friday but will drink a Miller for everybody. Have fun and fly safe.

Cheers Tom

Andy,

We're meeting at 9 AM, at the Rt. 83 exit on I-10 (Orrin's /Sonoita exit, a few miles east of Houghton).

Report on Mustang flights

Post by lewsmith » Sun Nov 28, 2010 10:38 am

Ioan and I had good glassoff flights at Mustang on Saturday (November 27). The wind at launch was SSW at 10 to 15 mph when Ioan launched at 4:15 PM and a steady 15 at 4:35 when I launched. I thought the wind aloft was too strong to fly on the ridge and flew in front of the mountain. Ioan didn't think the wind was that strong and flew over Mustang, Biscuit and Bruno for over an hour. We landed around sunset.
