Great soaring this weekend with awesome lift on both days. Scott got into possible wave and went to over 8000’. I made it to 5500’ a few times. Sunday afternoon had the ASK-21 with two wide bodies on aboard at 5500’. QW, our LS4 got some much enjoyed air time. Jere Maty even got to fly after instructing all day. Thanks to Ron Tuttle for the tows Saturday and Michael Froscher for the tows Sunday.@

Video shows the last part of the tow from the tow plane’s perspective. We typically tow up to somewhere around 2000-3000 feet above ground level (AGL) before releasing. Glider pilots can release when they are ready. For example if you plane to go to 3000’ but hit strong lift experienced pilots usually disconnect. Thanks to Michael Froscher for the video.

Too hot to go soaring,,,never!

A short clip from a thermal yesterday. Lots of lift (4-6kts) until the weather moved in. Climbed from 4000’ to almost 5000’ in the shortened clip. Flew for over two hours in an ASW-20B d;^)
