Trike flying at Long Acres
We went out to Long Acres farm in Macedon to set up the clubs trike and give out new trike pilot, Mark a work out. Ron, Linda and myself started rigging our gliders and as I was setting up I noticed a crack in one of my tip wands. It it a flexible fiberglass rod that forms the curved tip on the glider and if it broke while flying it may not make the glider fall out of the sky, it would still really suck. So although I have an extra one it was at home so I was done for the day. I worked as ground crew and got Linda and Ron in the air and then convinced Mark he should take me for a ride and I got a quick trike lesson. Here are a few pics I snapped while up and cruising around at 1500'.
