      Hi All-

      Would anyone be available to tow today starting around noon? I have a few lessons to give, happy to give instruction to anyone else who wants to come out.

       

      Cheers

      Tim

      I’ll be there to help grade the field or whatever.

      Hi All-

      Looks like the forecast is now calling for 20 knot crosswinds out of the South. At 2,000 feet that number is 40 knots, also out of the South. I don’t think our poor old 2-33 did anything to deserve that kind of abuse so I’ll retract my plans to fly today 🙁

      Cheers

      With Tim bowing out,  I’m not towing today unless someone gives me a call.

      John,

      Now I don’t need a tow pilot anymore…   playing with my new Pipistrel Sinus Flex in Zephyrhills Florida.  Motorglider with tremendous climb rate.  Took a while to get used to the adverse yaw on landing with the 50 ft wingspan.  Great soaring at 5500 ft with prop feathered… almost 30:1 L/D.  Needless to say the weather is also a bit nicer.

      Tampa Bay Soaring guys were all out.. but no flying due to the rather gusty winds.
