Yes Richard, down here they were west(ish) to start but veered a little more northerly later in the pm. Don’t think they were quite as strong as you had though, only about 50Km/h (30mph in old money)
I know what you mean about tingles up and down the spine. I’d describe it as like having sex when you’re a teenager,…….it’s the anticipation of it all! (But then I did go out with some pretty weird girls. In fact, they weren’t pretty at all,...... just weird.They were the only ones that would have me! :oops: )
When the wind is blowing at gale force, and you’re having trouble standing on the ridge, you can’t hear anything but the wind, the model is wiggling and trying to wrench itself out of your hand and you’re wondering if it’s going to launch, or just go completely out of control! Either way it takes a lot of concentration to fly in high wind conditions. And provides a lot of satisfaction when, at the end of the day, you go home knowing you've done it. :wink:
I find I always sleep well at nights after windy day flying.
May be I’m just getting old!
Keith
