Lest you think from my scribblings that Rieti is now the only place (next to Worcester) to fly at, herewith two photographs Michael Sommer sent me from his last visit to the Flying M Ranch. Judging from the results at the pre-worlds being flown at Lusse at the moment http://www.wgc2008.de/TASKS-RESULTS.34.0.html?&L=1 he will be going back!!!
This is what he had to say:
"We had a great time on the ranch (.....)! Cloudbase was very high (airspace max in the US is 18000 ft but I believe on some days the cloudbase was at least 3000 ft
higher!) but it started very late and the it was mainly blue. But the scenery of Nevada, the ranch and Barron are great! Attached photo of Brunos eta taken from the balloon and wave made visible by a bush fire near Minden!
Now on the way to Germany for the Nationals/Pre Worlds in Luesse."
