    … more time going through old soaring photos today, and I thought I would put out a series that covered a portion of a cross country flight in AZ2, so here we go. The top photo is an image from last night with me beginning a takeoff from Pleasant Valley Airport in Peoria, Turf Soaring operated out of there. The photo below is when both the tow plane and I were off the ground and heading for a 2 to 3,000 ft tow. The shot below that is from the cockpit and we are heading out towards Lake Pleasant … the photo below was taken as I approached the San Francisco Peaks. That was my turn point for the day … an out and return 300K cross country flight. During the years I flew high performance sailplanes, cross country flights were what I lived for!

    My first cross country flight for the SAA Silver badge was in my PW5 a very forgiving sailplane which is good when you are beginning in soaring. The flight was from Pleasant Valley Airport to Wickenburg Airport and when I lost final glide back to Pleasant Valley Airport and did not have final glide to Wickenburg Airport, I experienced a rush that is hard to explain … just me, my sailplane and my ability to find and work lift to get where I was going! I was completely hooked!

    Time to wrap the day, get a few hours of rest and then dive into the new day … keep breathing, and smiling … we are alive!

    Cheers,

    Ted

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
