I hope NARAM 60 is awesome :-)
So far, so good. 1/2A BG, C Eggloft, A Streamer Duration and A Payload Altitude are done. Tomorrow is B Cluster Altitude and A Helicopter Duration.

Weather has gotten kind of nasty in the afternoon (thunderstorms in southern Colorado stirring up the winds) but the main effect of this has been to shut down a little before the scheduled 4 PM both yesterday and today.

I am bummed that I missed being able to attend NARAM 60.  I am planning now to make it to TARC and NARAM 61 in 2019.
