Silver Saturday

Two CISS pilots earned silver badge legs yesterday, as Mario Lazaga reports:
Hi-five Jerry Simpson, our latest Silver Badge recipient. He earned his Silver Duration and Distance legs Saturday in his LS-4 by flying to Boone County and back, then hanging around Alexandria for two hours to complete 5:20 minutes. His Silver altitude had long been achieved.
His flight to Boone County Airport took about 1:30 minutes; his flight back to Alexandria about as long.
Meanwhile:
Dave Newill has accomplished the 5+ hours Silver Duration. He took off about 30 minutes before Jerry Simpson, and managed to stay up all 300 minutes and then some.
