Gordo and Hugh are up in wave again, flying north/south/north/south
along the eastern slope of the Sierras after a 6:30 launch out of
Minden.

Bob Spielman (Chukar) is also up, trying a 500 km speed and distance
in an ultralight (Sparrowhawk) after a 10:30 launch.

Both flights can be tracked by going to the SoaringNV web site
www.SoaringNV.com and clicking on the SPOT button in the upper right
corner.

Soar, SPOT, Soar! *See them soar! *(In real time less 10 minutes!)

thanks for the heads up Fred. Are they trying to best their 3
turnpoint record from last week? planning on flying back to minden?
