so that we will have a very valuable competition especially for sport class
pilots who want to vie for Sport Class World ranking.Now we have to make sure that we have enough pilots overall signed... mehr

East 16 mph gusting to 23 mph (3:53 PM)With a forecast of 10 to 15 mph east southeast winds I felt that it didn't look
like a good day to once again go around the Green Swamp. John Simon, Pedro
Garcia, and Matt Christensen decided to start late and go north to the air field
at Baron and back to Quest Air.They found strong lift and did not... mehr

On May the 21st, Franz Pacheiner passed the 500km triangle mark with his
Archeoptéryx! Unfortunately the flight cannot be registered as a world record in
the FAI 2 category as the Archeopteryx was equipped with an auxiliary electric
engine. Nevertheless, congratulation to Franz for this great achievement.

Tullio was high at this point, and I was low, but climbing slowly.Tullio wanted to get some shots of flying over the trees on today's flight
around the Green Swamp. So I took him west from Quest right over the Green Swamp

The pilots who flew at the Quest Air Open gave $600, plus we added
an additional $1,000 out of pilot fees. Monday was the last day that we could
give and have matching funds from GoPro.We don't expect to make a profit on the competitions that we run, but you don't
necessarily know how things are going to turn out. So when we saw that we... mehr

May 20 - 22Friday: A flyable day with upslope but the mantra is "May Gray". Morning low

The visible satellite at 2:47:Southwest wind should be bringing the sea breeze and clearing skies as seen
above. At 3:31 PM it looks that way here with plenty of cu's still to the west
