Babad Do'ag Saturday
Posted: Sat Aug 27, 2011 4:05 pm
I got another flight off of Babad Do'ag today. Launched at 12:47 and got a 30min flight. Landed because the clouds were building quit fast and looking a little to dark. It sprinkled on me while I was packing. Max altitude of 5500ft and made it within 0.5mile of the house.
I went up thinking I might have an easterly flow. I have not flown it in an east wind. I was wrong, I ended up working with a southwest flow. When I got to launch I could see the uppers was blowing out of the east, but not at launch level.
Lew got to watch the flight from his house.
Another successful flight.
But it was a HHHOOOOTTT hike up.
Pool felt really good when I got to the house.
