Hi, all. Conditions were perfect: After an interminable southerly windflow, winds shifted to northerly yesterday afternoon. During the nighttime hours, it got calm, with haze, partial cloud cover, and even decent humidity (at least, by our western standards). Thus, there was the best flight of the season to date in the 4am and early 5am hour.
