Everyone over here in So Cal had the day off. Even tho the conditions were garbage everyone wanted to fly.
This day was very hot for November. I blame chemtrails.
When we got to launch, there were a bunch of pilots getting ready to fly.
I told Chris that he needed to give the report.
Chris launched first and ended up at the bailout.
We were a little apprehensive to launch, but we wanted to fly.
This was my first day back in the air after the chaos at Palomar one week earlier.
So today, I am going to just take it easy.
As the day progressed, more and more pilots were in the air.
Some of them crossed and went to El Cap.
I made the decision to stay at the site and fly.
It took me about an hour to regain the confidents that I lost.
I practiced top landings and watched some of the more excellent pilots.
I launched a few more times before the day was over.
There was a nice glass off at the end of the day. I was able to get above the launch.
At this point in the day, I felt like I was back to normal.
Flying around over launch is fun when there is not much air traffic.
Another smooth landing, but I missed it because the GoPro was off.
Chris came to tell me that he had to hike because he launched first. LOL
It was a fun day of flying.
