WEATHERVisibility: Unlimited.Wind: Northwest at 6-8 kts. Strong dust storm midday.Altitudes: 5000 mslTime Aloft: Four hours plus.Max Lift: 500 ft per min.Temperature: 90 degrees F.Comment: Overcast with brief very light rain..
HIGHLIGHTS: 1. In order to get this page to you (it's already much later than I wanted it to be), I opted to write the story line later and let you just enjoy the photos of what was quite a week of soaring. As you can see, we had all levels of age groups represented, including a bevy of beauties compliments of Jack Wiegand, to all the young boys of Avenal who really wanted to learn to fly gliders. As they remarked, they watch the gliders in the air over Avenal and wish they could be up there in one of them.
So enjoy the photos, make up your own story, and later (hopefully not too much later) I'll finish writing what went on this week and upload it for you.
Thanks for your patience,
Harold Gallagher
