Hi OSCI,
I arrived about 12:45 to find preparations well underway. With a nearly direct crosswind we set up for 31 takeoffs and could land 13. We did six flights, five in O-2 and one Russia. Bob A. was first up on a solo . Donna and Jaime were next (glad to have Donna back flying). Mike took his Russia for flight 3. Tom followed with a solo. Bob Dyer then flew flight 5 taking Donna along as passenger. Donna with Jaime flew the hangar flight. The soaring forecast accurately predicted no lift resulting in all flights in the :17 – :22 range with the :22 belonging to Mike in his Russia as expected, but close examination of the flight sheet shows he made a 4000 agl tow. Oh well, the great beauty of the day made it memorable for early November. Bob D did 4 tows and Jaime filled in with 2 tows. The “gliders down” call to OMA APC was made at 1600. We were all out by 1630.
