[Amigo] > [SA's flight index] Saturday 4/7/12 Flight Articles by [Andy Dainsberg] [SA] and [SD]
Rob Sporrer (aka SA) Article copied from http://scpa.info/bb/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2495#p7613 by SA » Posted Sat Apr 07, 2012 3:55 pm You were right SD. That sea breeze kicked in around 12:30pm, but we were still able to pick up the scraps and get to about 3K. We had a bunch of new pilots ready for their first high flights, and a crew of Jesse Meyer’s students from bay area school Lift Paragliding visiting. We walked Parma and St. Mary’s, and wound up getting to Skyport in the Eagle van at 10am. Neal Parrow hucked off first just around 11am, and managed to climb out a couple hundred over. Travis was next on his first high flight and he managed to work it above launch as well. Marite followed and managed to get up at launch and then maintained at the round house spine and antenna farm for over an hour. It was working out front. Most found it very Bouyant from the round house spine out. We got the rest of the crew off, and the cycles at launch continued to pick up as the west started to arrive. It was all manageable. Ty had a nice tandem flight and went to the beach. Jon Blake and Joel also enjoyed some thermal flying. Marge was getting high out there as well. I had a nice flight with my tandem passenger Tracy. How far down range did you make it Andy? I think I saw you fly over Skyport as I was launching my tandem.
