Despite the low temperatures I can't resist taking advantage of the low winds. I'm heading over to SP for a couple of flights in about an hour (9:30).

Brrrrrrr! -13°C with windchill.... and -11°C ambient temperature. I thought about coming out.... but I don't think that I am hardened enough!

I hope that you enjoyed yourself and that your batteries were able to keep up!

Oh! And thanks for posting! This is a great opportunity to entice others to join you!

Got out to fly with Chris, but both our Apprentices were glitchy. Mine more than his. Plane would all of a sudden bank right or if in a bank would return to level flight and then take several seconds to respond to corrective stick movement. Seemed to happen in the far corner to the right of the school each time. I hope the field isn't getting interference from something. Could be the cold, but I've flown before in -C with no issues.

I never crash, I just create exciting ways to meet the ground. After all, take-offs are desirable, landings are inevitable.
