Well, much of it has been said already. The weather
was great, light winds, warm and lots of thermals. As noted the excitement of
the day was an ICON going into the wires and knocking power out to 20,000
people. The second interesting note of the day was JOE WURTS making the
shame with landing waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out from the LZ. Also,
DP had a 5 minute flight on a 10 minute add'em up. They are mortal.
The results are not important because of the add'em
up. Tomorrow should be much more of the same conditions.
Regarding the Supra's, they fly well and launch
great. At this point no specific model has an advantage over
another.
The sun was intense. So intense that Ed Whyte is
now Ed Red!!! For those of you stuck in the middle of cold country, give this
event a thought. Today was classic Phx metro weather. The only downside to the
venue is the 116 days without rain. The grass was not green and things were a
little dustier than normal.
