Depending on where you look, the forecast is different...

Either way, I think the Skylark will have to wait for it's first flight. I don't fancy bringing home a bag of bits! :(

Saw John Fireball setting up his middle phase at the western slope when I was heading home. Plenty of lift, so I took my P6 out. Vertical takeoff. It flew like a homesick angel. Plenty of lift but very bumpy. 30  minutes later all of my tricks flown, plus a few I didn't know I could do, and hadn't planned on doing either. Got my fix and model still in 1 piece. A successful dsys flying so.

Yea Chris,
              That was the best flying of the day. Lift was much better than on the hilltop, only the low sun made it difficult. Should have gone there earlier.
