Fred: Thanks for the reminder on safety. Certainly, I need it, as this is my first Tucson Spring season of flying. My flight was an extended sled ride, not for lack of lift, but for lack of comfort. While I found plenty of lift, it was punchy, and I had trouble staying in it. And, every time I got s...

Right now, it looks like glass-off at Box or Mustang is a better bet than Miller for the PGs, but Eric has only 30+ years of weather forecasting on me. :) Maybe I'll start at Miller in the morning and migrate to Mustang or Box for the evening. I'll check the...

PG This Week
Anyone available to fly this week? Current forecasts do not look very promising, but it's possible that Box will work tomorrow (Tuesday).

Saturday PG
If the current weather predictions hold, Saturday will be blown out at Mustang for the bag wings. A glass off at Box looks possible, and our aluminum-enriched friends will be there. Anyone interested?

Winter is over; it was two weeks ago on Sunday. Sorry if you missed it. Mark Williams, Gunter, and I left the Box LZ around noon and arrived on launch about 1:00 p.m. We noticed plenty of good, strong cycles during the hike, but they all seemed to be separated by a significant lull.
