Default Cordele, Georgia, Report Thursday 17 May 07

No Contest today. The weather just didn't cooperate.
The weatherman/sniffer Ray Galloway launched and didn't
like what he saw. They then launched Sam Giltner,
who was first on the grid for Sports Class, and he
concurred with Ray. Considering we've had three fine
soaring days and weather looking good for Friday and
Saturday, the CD, along with his advisors, cancelled
today's tasks.

About five of us launched, seeking out the elusive
Cordele Wave. Yea, they've had it, or something like
wave before. Henry Retting and Don Wasness and Mike
Smith think they found a little wave and got, I think,
to 5,500' msl.

We're all hoping for better weather tomorrow.

I wish someone at the Cordele contest would post a scoresheet, or at
least a contestant list.
