Hi everybody,

Cameron Rogers will be out to tow at HSC on Thursday, 4/5, beginning at around 9AM. He'll be flying the tan Cherokee N8717W. Charlie Hayes will be there too, working with a student all day in one of the HSC 2-32s. Charlie and his student will be taking a lunch break between around noon and 1PM, so this would be a great "window of opportunity" for private owners and/or BASA Members to get launched if the conditions are good for soaring at that time. Tows will be available throughout the afternoon as long as Charlie and his student are doing their flight training. There will be no aero-retrieves from Panoche by Cameron, and retrieves from any other locations are possible, but not guaranteed. (The decision to aero-retrieve from Panoche or any place else will be made by Charlie Hayes who MAY offer to hop in the Pawnee toward the end of the day to perform the retrieve, but only AFTER he has finished with his student.)

There will be limited ground-support offered by either the tow pilot, Haven, or Charlie if they are available. You will need to plan on maneuvering your glider as much as possible by yourself.

I'll be setting up a formal work crew to do ground labor at Panoche sometime within the next 2-3 weeks, and will post on the chat-groups when the day has been selected.

On Thursday I will be enjoying the soaring (or sinking) feeling of tax preparation in Beautiful Downtown San Bruno.

Happy soaring and tax preparation,
Quest
