Default Fun Day Flying

Well we had an afternoon good enough to fly a bit. So my bud and I went out with a couple of electrics. My little Firefly and his Radian. Plenty of lift, we were getting 6 to 8 easy minutes after a power up. Well we wanted to find his Radian's "Magic Window" and he kept making passes but mostly still to high. So I sugested he do a couple af medium sized circles to burn off some altitude. That #&^@ thing wouldn't come down at all. He had found yet another thermal. We were laughing so hard it was hard to see the glider but it was going up at a good clip so he went with till it fizzled out and the day was done. Any time you laugh that much flying is a good day[8D]
