Stupid flying
Thomas has suggested I need a complete refit.

Oh! Not Columbia
 ... Slope flying near the equator is alive and very well! Sorry for the hijack.

We went this weekend. Had ballistic conditions on Saturday at Eagle. My wind meter peaks at 70 mph and it was pegged!

Hi Tom,
I flew my fully loaded Blast in that wind. That plane is a rocket in big lift!  I'm reconsidering my decision to put it up for sale. The pumps were outrageous!! I believe Joel got some video of it.... The wind backed off in the afternoon to about 40-50 mph so then I started tossing fully loaded F3X models (Ceres, Sting, and Giant). |

Everything in the photo's flew, the video I got with my phone is a bit dark, when I have time I'll try to brighten it up. If it's worthy, I'll post it.

Notice how far back we were on the hill! Parts and planes would have been flying had we left them where we usually do. The wind smoothed out and backed down to 30-40 much later in the day which made for some excellent flying. After enduring cold temps and high winds I have never slept so soundly when bedtime came around...
