There are two main reasons for not have being able to go flying lately.

1. Bad conditions
2. Tight logistics

This time of year, the weather can be challenging here in my neck of the woods. We often get it all, snow, sleet, rain, fog, gale, yeah, you name it!

In addition time of daylight is very limited now. It’s not daylight until 9:30’is and pitch-black again between 15:00 and 15:30.

Heck, if rainy, it won’t actually get light at all. And all of this makes flying difficult.

I also run a pretty tight logistics schedule. Work, domestic duties and our horses put a significant limitation to available time for flying. And with X-mas coming up doesn’t free up flying time either.

But now there might be a tiny slot for putting in some serious flying time!

I have a few spare hours this coming Saturday, and according to the guys at YR, a nice westerly breeze will be coming in from the sea at about 3-4m/sec. Maby a light drizzle in the morning hours, but if you can fly your kite into the water, I’m sure it can take some light precipitation too! 👍

It’s all about to dress for the occasion, grab a thermos of hot, black coffee, and hit the field… or beach actually.

I’m ready!
