Pilot comments
It has taken nearly 2 years to get 'off the ground' with the S wind. We have been flying W and NW winds for that long. So, summer will have op'y for XL-ent XC. This has potential to be an all year round training site. 10 flights a day for TO and Lndg training in gentle winds and mild thermal.
