: Hope to see Mark's Brokenstraw adventure story
: here. It was a wonderful soaring day with
: cloudbase at 5,500 - 6,000 ft in the DSV
: area. Very clear, no haze and a good day to
: take pictures. Wondered why I was getting
: to distant Cu lower than expected.
: Discovered after 5 hours that my landing
: gear was extended the whole time. I don't
: hear the higher pitched sounds of whistling
: like the extended gear so I didn't notice.
: I usually retract the gear right after tow
: release. Another thing to add to the check
: list. Still it was very pleasant 5 hrs and
: I got some good pictures of Hemlock and
: Canadice Lakes.
