2011 Final Scheduled Weekend

Many members took advantage of the nice weather Friday, Saturday and Sunday for some late season flying activities.

Todd Rutledge, Brad Hayes, Gerry Simpson, and John Earlywine posted OLC flights which put CISS in first place in Region 6 going into the winter slowdown. Many other pilots made glider flights on Friday and Saturday.

Gerry Simpson hit a milestone of 500 hours of glider time with his Friday flight. 

Rick Hansen braved direct crosswinds of 12 gusting to 19 on Sunday in the Grob. Possibly this was because he was crew chief and wanted to have a flight on the log to show for the crew's efforts.

Rick Hansen also soloed in the J-5 on Friday and is shown below with his instructor Larry Miller.
