The Palomar Oct. 22nd Fly-in was a fun day with plenty of smooth lift to cloud-base all over the valley. The initial forecast predicted only a morning session since possible light precipitation would start in the evening, but the weather gods smiled on us and the sun came out and clouds lifted. The wind did start to pick-up around 2:30pm, and for those already on the ground sitting in lawn chairs enjoying tacos and beers, they got to watch the show as pilots maneuvered not to land short of the LZ in relatively strong winds. No orange trees were landed on!
