Update for April 23rd & 24th

Things are looking good for the weekend, weather is supposed to be in the low 80's (in April!) with 5-10 mph winds from the south heading toward the North tree line and Simpson property.
Ken should be with us for both days so bring your shopping lists.
Range opens at about 10:30 once we get set up. We'll fly till about 5 PM.
Sunday there's supposed to be a group of folks coming from University of Georgia to get their L1's so welcome them please.
We will probably want to restrict sparky motors unless the runway has really greened up since last month. We've had some close calls in the last few months and with crops coming up we really need to be careful.
Speaking of crops the Oats are heading out in the south field so if you come down in there please, straight in and straight out. No rummaging about trying to find it. We want to be careful with the crops.
See you on Saturday!
