Day 5
Well first day 4 was a lazy 4.9 blade day..put in 1.5 hrs in 12/15
Last day out today winds are switching and I'm working
Was happy I was going flying w/ 3.3 buster..had 45 mins working it in 12/17and felt I needed more...so out came the blade put it up and the winds
instantly jumped to 22+ and I went back to survival flying...hung in as long as I could but I had no arms left and my neck hurt from having to look
sideways at where as i was headed...great 5 days, gonna have to miss day 6 I'm kinda toast
