More Silver

Yesterday Dan Dewitt flew his LS-4, IZ, to The Airport Formerly Known As Terry and back.

This is shaping up into quite a month for silver badge legs:
  • May 3: George Saunders got his 50km silver distance and possibly his 1000M altitude gain,
  • May 6: Dave Newill got his 5 hour silver duration flight, and Gerry Simpson got his duration and distance,
  • May 7: Dan Dewitt got his distance and altitude.
The weather forecast for the rest of this week looks rainy, but things can change fast. If you want a good soaring day for a silver, gold or record flight, be ready to pounce on a good day whenever it comes for the rest of the month.
Here's hoping for even better conditions when we make the trip to Lee Bottom on the 20th and 21st.
