Sep 24/19 – John and Jason day 2

It was super windy yesterday so Jason and John went back to work. They live relatively close by and they made flexible arrangement at work so if the weather is bad they go back – that is ideal. No pressure.

It was supposed to be very windy in the morning but calming down by noon so the plan was to start ground handling at 11 AM. As it turns out it was actually quite nice morning but of course we did not get to field until 11 am since that was the plan we have made the day before. This is when thermals started to kick in hard and the initial part of the kiting was done in these gusty conditions. Ouch.

John picked it up real quick Jason was bit behind but in few hours Jason caught up and now both guys are about at the same level. I was hoping that the wind would become smooth last couple hours before sunset so we could kite with motors. I did go for demo flight but it was really gusty to the point where I really didn’t like it. We waited another half an hour but it was still very gusty so we packed up.

Productive day,conditions could have been a little better but oh well can’t have it all
