For those of you who want to participate in the weather "class" I've switched over to email communications to organize things. Let me know if you are not on my list and you would like to be. First session expected on Feb 23, Tuesday.

My book also just came in...."How to Understand the Female Species." It's awesome...and I do need a lot of help...

Ohh......ahh.....wait a minute...Did I get the wrong book?

No....it is exactly the right book...especially for Valentine's Day!!!!
Happy Valentine's to all! ;-)

I am with text book!

   
My copy has arrived.

   
Ordered my copy of the book - it should be here by mid-week.

   
I may be able to get our executive conference room complete with cold coffee, hot soda's, and projector.

   
Hey Bob -- Any chance we could carpool? ABQ is such a LONG way off. Ordered a copy of the book yesterday.
Cliff

   
My book got here today!

I ordered my book today.

   
Wow, lots of interest, great. I may rethink a meeting place. flying star may have been too noisy, anyway. More details to come in email soon.

   
Excellent idea! Count me in too Brian.

   
Count me in.
I have a copy that I can loan (for a short time).
Stan

   
Count me in as well I would like to come.
Thanks,
Mary

   
Count me in. Walt

   
I would like a refresher, count me in. Bob

   
Hi Kimmine, I'll buy the second copy from you.
Clay

   
It's the first one "understanding the sky." I just ordered two from amazon today to save the shipping costs. Let me know if you'd like to buy the other copy from me.

Thanks Brian for organizing the small group discussion! I'm looking forward to it! Kimmine

   
Which book is it? I found two by Pagen at Amazon.com; "Understanding the sky", and "Understanding the sky-a sport pilot's guide to flying conditions."
Anyone know if these are one and the same?

Brian - count me in! I have some credit to Amazon.com, so this is a great way to spend it.

Others interested can chime in here or send me email. Then, in a few weeks I'll send out an email to the interested folks to make arrangements. we'll need to get people their books ($24 from Amazon, or you can get from other soaring suppliers). As long as there are at least 3-4 folks, I'm game.

I'm envisioning bi-weekly reading assignments from the Pagen book, which I will assign. Then we meet for dessert/coffee for an hour or two, biweekly, to discuss. I'm thinking of a place like flying star. An evening during the week in ABQ. we'll time the syllabus to ease into the spring-time NM weather, which is always pretty dynamic.

   
Brian,
Count me in!

Stan too

   
Brian, if you set something up, I'm in.
Clay

   
THAT is a good weather book. I have a copy. It is the source of all my weather forecasting powers. I'll have to think about whether I can part with it for a few months, but I probably can manage. :-)

Along the same lines, if there is enough interest in going through that book as a small group then we might think about setting something up. I have heard a couple people mention that they would like to learn the stuff.

Does anyone have a copy of "Understanding the Sky" by Dennis Pagen that they would be willing to lend me for a few months? Thanks, Kimmine
