    Thursday will be too windy. Friday and Saturday are looking nice. Lighter winds and higher lift both days.

    I will be out on Wednesday and I believe we have a tow pilot. Anyone interested in flying?

    Andy was on the right track but I believe the discrepancy was the temperature and dew point never met. Below is a decent video on how to read the Skew T plot.

    If my attachment comes through it is the Skew T from today’s SkySight forecast.

    Happy soaring!

    Saturday was a project day. Thanks to the team that assisted in washing the Krosno. Sunday was a fun day to fly. Thanks John for providing 10 tows. Started with low cloud bases so pattern tows were appropriate. Clearing continued throughout the day. Kees provided a scenic flight. Fall colors are just about to pop so there will be more requests for sightseeing. Rich flew with his son and Petr pulled out the PW-5. Since it was out I also took it up for some practice working fragmented thermals. Rarely able to complete more than one turn without falling out of it.

    In case you missed it (and most of you did) Karl asked a great question and here is the answer he sent me.

    No, to the tow pilot. Yes to the beautiful day.
