More on intermittent CAI-302 shutdown by Frank[_1_]

lift on the Sierras? by Hellman
I fly a motor glider out of the San Francisco Bay Area and frequently head over the Sierras to the good soaring. My question has to do with lift on the Sierras themselves. I've occasionally been able to soar on them, but most of the time find them marginal at best. Clouds which would indicate...
