Merry Christmas, all!

Ba humbug! (I'm at my office staring at a motivational poster CH gave
me. It has Dilbert sitting in his cubicle, placed outdoors, and an
eagle way overhead dropping a load on him. The caption is "SOARING --
One more thing you're not doing right now!")

66 I think you will like new start-anywhere. I didn't get to use it at
Parowan but during the a few ASA contest flights earlier in the year
it provided some welcome flexibility inside the start cylinder.

My first preference was to start *when* I wanted to, out the side,
like in the previous rules. But when I was loitering about, killing
time between the task open and that ideal start time, and stumbled
into a butt thumper, I had the option of taking it out the top
instead.

I found it made for less stressful starts, and certainly less
stressful first legs, and less stress is a good thing. Just ask
Dilbert ...
