2011 Mingus Fly Fest, Cross Country Task report
First we want to say a big thanks to all the drivers. We could not have done this without you. We had 14 pilots sign up for the task and we received 7 track logs for Saturday’s task. Saturday was a big day, and people were reporting the highest that they had ever been (16,000-17,000ft). We set up 3 ...

Ham Radio stuff
When I talked to Aaron Stutz a few days ago, he was talking about sometihng like that. He wanted to show me his setup the the next time we go flying. From his description, you can put whatever type of connector you need to fit your radio.
Give him a call

Babad Do'ag Saturday
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 ...

Thanks John L. for updating this page. I use been using XC skies a lot this year and I seem to like a lot of the features in it. When I was in CA, I used The Soaring Predictor. It seemed to be about as good and anything else. Sometime they got it right and sometimes they didn't. It was another one t...

Miller Launch
I called the Sierra Vista Ranger District to check if the road will be open. She indicated that it will not be open and she did not know when it will open.

Mt. Lemmon Flight report
Terry, John and myself arrived at launch a little after 11:00AM. When we got to launch the clouds were already shading the launch. I went first around 12:20 PM. It was a running reverse in light winds. Once I got out to the front ridge I found light lift that slowly got me back up to launch level. W...

Flying sites
If I understand it correctly, all of our sites are open except Miller. I called about Miller and they indicated that the road is washing badly. I forgot to ask about the Whetstones. I asked about Box canyon and they indicated that it is open.

Wyatt, The weather looks to unorganized to go to Samaniego Ridge. It would be a big crapshoot if it would work. Too much time and energy spent for such uncertain conditions. I might try to go to Babad Do'ag but that’s only 10 minutes from my house so not much time spent for me to try it. We will let...
