Today was a lot of fun early on, but it got steadily stronger as the afternoon progressed. It had a lot of South in it a totally new direction that provided lots of lift. The drawback was I had to maintain left brake all the time to stay aligned. Forgot to turn on the track recorder until almost at the end of the afternoon...gggrrrrr! Otherwise it would have been just a mass of pink up there. I couldn't really go too far as it was a speed bar day all afternoon. The graphics show full speed bar and barely moving forward. My legs are killing me! I had to maintain a fair amount of left brake with the bar on as well, which I didn't like, but it got me by.

Good lift all afternoon, think I flew almost 4 hours, forgot to turn the gps track recorder on until the last 1/2 hour.....

 The middle track shows  me easing away from the bluff, the whole time on full speed bar trying to maintain forward travel. All of that flight was facing east along the runway you can see me going backwards in a lot of places. After Monday's episodes it wasn't a particularly "Fun" day as there was some pretty good turb that whacked me about. Figured it was better to stay up and work through it. But at the end of it all, conditions just too strong for comfortable flying.

This last one shows the stages from Monday's excitement.
