Saturday morning was spent flying at Syvrud with Dennis and Matt A. Matt logged his 25th flight and just needs to pass the written test to earn his PPG2 rating. Saturday afternoon was spent pulling free flyers into the sky behind the Jeep with the winch. Dmitri and David made several flights from the end of the tow rope. On one flight I pulled Dmitri up to about 1,800' before he released and chased the rising air where he topped out around 3,500' before sinking back to the surface over 40 minutes later. Dennis came out again on Sunday morning to get his 25th flight in. All that's left for him is the written test too. Sunday evening was spent wheel launch training with Chuck and new student Cliff. The winds eventually lined up with the runway allowing Chuck to make a few touch-n-go landings. Cliff and I decided he needed to make a few modifications to his cart before attempting to get it off the ground, perhaps next weekend.
