    Thanks much Don, esp on last sentence.  As I had past been looking for any Foscam mobile App on Google Play,…..I had not checked at the Foscam support page.

    As John mentioned, Tu, Wed, Thurs appear good WX.
    I would like to help & fly Wednesday or Thurs. I can’t get to field until 12pm on Wed.
    I hope I can make it out Tuesday aft, too.

    Much depends on tow pilot availability any of these 3 days.

    Andy, it possibly could be that a member Tow Pilot was not available for today.  Me?   my right thumb joint got slightly dislocated. Not good for joystick control at the moment.

    Last Thurs, 5-4-23, I heard someone at the field Ops say the old Umbrella was discarded in Fall , @ end of season.  Broken too much.

    What’s a good way to determine if mowing (or other grounds clutter) needs to be done, without making a drive out to field. Could the webcam help determine?  Asking since we have to refrain from grounds equipment movement during Flight Ops.

    Can we add one more item to the Before-Landing X-list…….Radio Call.?I have been putting that item after “airbrake”, before “Lookout & Land”Then my reminder becomes “FUSTARLL” Just a thought.

    Tim,  some of us did 2 flights gor Spring Checkout on Sat 4/8/23, instead of 3 flights.The initial was to 3000 to get the PTS tasks in, and 2nd flight for PTT handling.  I think there is still(?) a 3rd flight required, but it wasn’t clear if that is Solo, or with a CFI, since things were busy on Say with many CFIs getting cleared for spring check.Can anyone clarify the 3rd flight req?

    Thanks

    Its been 5 days and no further discussion,  either off-field or on-field.  So I’d like to know if this Action is the “new expectation” for every +10000 members of the Soaring Society of America:  prepare to possibly fall-on-your-sword, like a Roman.

    I deserve a clearer answer from either the SSA or the SSF, …if either have the insight.
