Congratulations, Sebastian, on your first solo!

On a perfect late summer day, junior member Sebastian Lorenz made his first solo flight today in N2041T. Way to go, Sebastian! Not much thermal activity today, but Sebastian was able to gain about a thousand feet after release before entering the pattern and landing.

Labor Day Weekend Wrap up

Well, the weather caught up with us and today was a washout, but we had three nice days of flying Friday to Sunday. Somewhat poor turn-out for a holiday weekend but still plenty of training, several folks camping and cooking out. Overall a very nice long-weekend.
