Wind Picking Up

I was there this afternoon Sat 26 Nov. Some wind from the west at 3 knots. More consistent than a week ago. Will take another two weeks in my estimate for sufficient wind to fly gliders consistently.

Nada - No wind

Was there this Sat Dec 3, worst than last week. No wind at all.

[tampines flyer]

well somtime pass by the bedok high way there two crane with the flag on the tip so that so way the wind dir. is . we got to have north/ east wind cause the position of the slope wind is north/east that the best position.
if u have north west wind the dir. of the wind blow is somewhere on the left side which u need power glider to climb above the bush or tree.or else pls bring ur live jacket along in case go to water. which i saw few of them almost.if not pls bring fishing rod.

Hello, I have been at the slope for the last 2 days from 4pm till last light, The wind was fantastic!!! 20 kts steady gusting 35 at times. Had to weight my glider with 3 X 7.4 battery packs for penetration at times. Really exciting!! Have fun guys. Tomorrow I will be going at 5 pm.
