Flying in California

Post by Lloyd »

Hi All, Nice to hear that you guys are getting from flying in. I am out in California with my wife who is attending a medical clinic. Meet up with some of the local pilots on St. Helena NW of Santa Rosa. One hour to walk to the top and nobody flying, too windy. But they flew the day before. Here is what it is like to fly here http://vimeo.com/m/94344011

Hope it is flyable this weekend. Cheers Lloyd

Hope all goes well for you both.

There's always the coast. If you pass Oceanside, on the northern side on the road down to the yacht marina is a surf shop called UP. The owner is a real character and the original founder of UP! The shop still has the original logo, he'll point you in the right direction for some epic flying!
Hope all goes well with the treatment.
You're not missing anything here.
See you out there!!!!!
