Spring 2013

The flying season got off to a slooooow start. In 2011 and 2012 we were flying Villa Grove (San Luis Valley) by mid-March. 2013 has been pretty rough. We had a lot of cold weather and snow well into May. I only managed two flights total by the middle of May. Weird. Memorial Day weekend changed all that. I managed two back-to-back flying days during fantastic Villa Grove glass-off conditions (strong wind with lots of sun) that made for perfect late day flights. It was blowing in at 40mph plus while setting up on Friday evening May 24th but Villa ramps down fast near sunset. Got the smoothest air I've ever had on both Friday 5/24 and Saturday 5/25 after high wind days.

Awesome flying Memorial Day Weekend 2013
