I'll try to keep it short. Marshall, 4 flights on Saturday. I top landed on the first three flights. First launch at 2 pm. Got my best lift up to 5700 (launch 4000). Thermals were infrequent but good, you just had to hit one. Top landed in strong conditions. Relaunch and landed again two more times....

Miller PG Report
Fred, Jeremy (?spell'g) a new P2 Pg pilot who just moved to Tucson, and I were up at the N launch by about 10:45 am. Winds were switching from NE to SE with light intermittant cycles coming thru occasionally. I launched first (wind dummy) at 11:05 on the East launch to test the conditions. I stayed ...

Very similar to my Firebird Hornet but faster and smaller, with a glide of 8.4-8.7. Max speed with acceler. =32mph. Surface area is only 25.5 m2, vs 3...

Sat. Pg Flying Report
After reading John's report this will be boring. Horst (a visiting pilot form Germany) and I met in the Lz at 4:30 pm. Horst launched first from the N launch into a light cycle. He scratched out front for a while catching little thermals, and eventually after about 10 min. landed short of the Lz. I ...

Miller Pg Flying Report
John launched around 11:20 a.m. into light to medium cycles (from the E launch). He flew out front and found some good lift. I launched around 10 minutes later, found some sink and flew left in front of the ridge. There I found some great smooth lift, which I took up to and above Carr peak. John soo...
