It's Montreal in the winter, what can you say?

There are worse places to land, up north with NDB only approaches come to mind.
 
I noticed the sun looked a little bit lower than it has been, when I came into land this evening...a sure sign that winter aint to far away. :eek:
 
johnpeace,

Is that there one of those fancy Seedwings Sensors in your avatar pix? I have some time with a couple of models of those!

YUP! It was a 610F that I got about 5-10 hours on and just absolutely LOVED! With the VG mostly off and a little bit of flaps, that glider would slow down to just nothing and still maintain about -200fpm. It was a joy to launch, thermal and land. Easiest landing glider I ever flew. That pic is of me launching from 6K on Haleakala, Maui...my home site. We've since moved to the mainland and I don't get to fly HG anymore, looking forward to doing my sailplane transition training this fall.
