deLorme inReach rebate
DeLorme has a $50 rebate for their inReach (both versions). I think it is good till the end of the year. If you were thinking of getting one, now you have an extra incentive.

Re: December Club Meeting
At the end of the meeting, I'm planning on doing a demo of the new website. I think I've got most of the features I wanted working. It is just a matter of content now. It would be nice to have it live before the end of the year, so please come by and give me some feedback. If you are out of town and...

Re: Mustang SAt 11/29
Great Sunday at Mustang as well. Chris, Mic and I flew the glass-off for about 1.5 h.
It was weaker than the day before, coming up straight West at 10 mph, as predicted.

Re: Mustang SAt 11/29
The winds were a little strong when we reached the top of Mustang. 12-14 with gusts to 18 so we waited around for an hour or so before we took off. I waited for a lighter cycle and launched at 4:10 in winds of 10-12 mph and went up relatively fast and easy. Did not have to use the speed bar but I su...

Re: Mustang SAt 11/29
There are at least 5 of us hiking up Mustang today, we'll be in LZ by 2 or 2:30 PM. The wind will be a little strong and slightly cross on launch but I think we'll have another great glass-off. If not, at least we'll burn out the turkey :D Join us! Planning to be on launch at 3:30 - 4 PM. The wind t...

Re: Box Monday
Good flight today. I was in the air for about 1.5 hours and froze my butt off. I hiked to the first knoll and found the wind blowing west at 5-7 mph. I thought it was too weak to allow me to bench up and more importantly it was too cross, 90 degree (coming in straight West). It was predicted to swit...

Box Monday
Box looks good for Monday. Anyone interested? If we can get a 4x4 I'm going to try to get a driver.

Re: Mustang on Wednesday (or Tuesday)
Poor John V... My hands were freezing up there. I can only imagine what was like flying in a T-shirt. He seems fine though but the alertness of his arm hair gives it away

Re: Mustang on Wednesday (or Tuesday)
Flew Mustang again today. Beautiful conditions, lift to 6800', wind out of the west at 10-12 mph. This makes three days in a row. My volleyball friends Kimberley and Sandy hiked up with me and enjoyed the sunset. https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-2okRX68jCbE/VGWMgepzHAI/AAAAAAAAABU/dgRFOdEit4M/s720...

Re: Mustang on Wednesday (or Tuesday)
Wednesday was a little strong when we got there. Winds 11-13 with gusts to 18. We had to wait till 4:45 or so to launch when the winds got down to 10-12. I launched first and got plucked up before I had a chance to turn. Had to fly it in reverse for a little bit to get away from the terrain. The air...
