A Beautiful Flight

I had a MUCH better day today...wow, what an improvement from yesterday.

I flew to Mt.Beauty again, but this time flew a heck of a lot better; there were times where I thought the air was silky smooth and turning in thermals was really flowy and almost too easy...other moments reminded me a bit of Golden where you got your ass kicked when you flew through the edges of thermals with all that pitching, diving as the wind screams past.

Great flight though - 3.5 hours in the air today is a new duration record for me in terms of thermic flights - yay!

Here are some pics:



5 k or 7 k crossing from Pyramid to Mt.Beauty - mind the trees!



I learned the embarrasing way that Mt.Beauty is a TOWN not a mountain!

Happy girl!

Yes, new helmet! I'm slowly becoming a stylish pilot...

Thanks, that was a great flight - I've only just started though...
