What a fantastic day but sadly not for me flew the worst I have in years but its cool to experience wind and cold like usual at Jerlderie and many corridors zig and zag good then not so good really hard work to be consistant and these guys can play it was really hard work to get across the field to lift area and I feel so in awe of some these quality pilots and got handed my arse but thats life need a wake up call man a great team thank you so much Jim Houdalakis and Scott Lennon and especially Dave Pratley
P.S.not sick of the Aussie jokes yet

Did a few flights today it was awesome to back on the winch with a 10 minute target it wasnt easy air. Still quite cool with a few handy corridors coming through it was gusty and expected wind speed for tommorow was a little more.Although
I managed 10 mins without ballast just lucky with this flight. My maxa landings were very blustery but fun to dork a model again wind and rain overnight becoming fine for the rest of the weekend.Time to find a heater and shower....maybe a beer with my aussie friends. Oh and I have to listen to 4000 sheep jokes involving Kiwis!!!
