That sounds good to me too!!!

I'm trying to schedule a meeting this weekend, and if it works out, it might be a fun day for everyone.

Here's the current forecast for Sunday:

  Forecast for Sunday, January 24th, 2016 (made on Wed Jan 20 04:20:16 2016 UTC)

The direction of 260 degrees is about as straight in as it can get. And 13mph is very nice for launching and landing practice as well as ... soaring.   :thumbup:

USHPA's new Region 3 Director - Ken Andrews - will be at Dockweiler for a fun day of flying and discussions this Sunday (January 24th, 2016).

I'll hopefully try to get there by noon and I look forward to seeing lots of "Friends of Dockweiler"!!!

Also, I've opened a new topic titled "Ken Andrews at Dockweiler - January 24th" so that discussion doesn't get lost under this January 17th Sunday Funday topic.
