August into September 2008 flying

Instructor Joe Stubbs, writing about the end of August: "We had a busy weekend. Attached is a reasonably good photo I took of Janet Trost flying Sunday evening. During one of the last club flights of August 2008, Janet successfully flew in the setting sun in CXC with her instruments covered with post-it notes and wing tape."

SOSA Chief Flying Instructor John Brennan reports Saturday, September 6th: "Dave Springford says, 'Luke Szczepaniak and I had great soaring flights while the pundits on the ground said it wasn't a x-country day! Hah! Bald Eagle in a thermal and a sea breeze front on the same day, the soaring gods were smiling on Saturday'." John Brennan commented, "Dave flew Lake Ontario sea breeze while most of us wondered what all that low hanging cloud to the East meant. The season is not over yet."
