CAUTION – Sandhill Cranes migration starting!

The Fall migration has started along the Foothills, at about the 1,500′ elevation, where they can ride any thermals,
or, today, they are riding the 30 kt south wind, so their ground speed is about 60 kts.

Note that they will be flying at 4,000 ft and above, and fly in wide ‘V’ formations of 50+ birds.

If they find a strong thermal they will spiral up, single file, to over 10,000′ before reforming their ‘V’ formation again.

So, be careful flying along the Foothills, or crossing them…. they are nordo and no ADSB.

Chapter meeting this Wednesday

Touring the Bay Area in a Gyroplane will be this month’s program for our online chapter meeting on Wednesday, September 15th. In April, a group of Gyroplanes did the “Bay Area Tour.” Learn about the airspace surrounding the Bay Area within the context of flying Low and Slow in a motorcycle in the sky! This discussion will be a little bit travelogue, a little bit of airspace review and a little bit open discussion about experiences flying around the Bay Area. Chapter member Chris Silva will be our presenter.

Our monthly online meeting will begin with our Hangar Chat time at 6:40 pm. The main meeting begins at 7:00 pm. You can join this Zoom meeting by clicking here that evening. The link to join the meeting will also be sent out to the chapter mailing list the morning of the event.
