750 and Marshall, Tuesday 8/12/08

9:00, The 750, Falcon 3 195
Clear, sunny, and hot. No wind.
Your basic sledder. Light SE at LZ, right-hand approach.

10:15, Marshall, Falcon 3 195
Still mostly no wind at launch. Inversion layer about 1000 feet below launch. Scratchable small weak thermals at the bluffs near the LZ.

Right-hand approach again. Probably would have been able to scratch until the good cycles started. An impressive dust devil came up the parking lot while packing the gliders.
