The weather just didn't cooperate. The weatherman/sniffer Ray Galloway launched and didn't like what he saw. They then launched Sam Giltner, who was first on the grid for Sports Class, and he concurred with Ray. Considering we've had three fine soaring days and weather looking good for Friday and Saturday, the CD, along with his advisors, cancelled today's tasks. About five of us launched, seeking out the elusive Cordele Wave. Yea, they've had it, or something like wave before. Henry Retting and Don Wasness and Mike Smith think they found a little wave and got, I think, to 5,500' msl. We're all hoping for better weather tomorrow.
