That was an excellent write up, the best post I have read here in
awhile. I am so happy for you and Joe, and the rest of the crew. That
story is all about what LSF is about, the team work and preparation and
perseverance to accomplish the tasks. These tasks can't be done with a
"team of one" when you get to the upper levels, and that is one aspect that
is really cool about it.
John, all I have left is the 8 hour and the 10k X/C, you have inspired me
to press on again!
Thank you,
Jim
P.S. Great pictures too!

The further along I go in LSF the more I appreciate how it was set up. The
steps have gotten increasingly more difficult, especially the 3 wins given
the caliber of pilots I fly with. I have two more wins to go, and a 2 hour
thermal flight and I will be done. The LSF pioneers had a good plan. You
fly with your peers, you challenge yourself, you learn a lot along the way.
I've posted some preliminary pictures here:
