@ChrisSing danke!

I loved the way the sun was burning through those clouds! Is that your pet hawk or is it just happy to see your glider?

[NMERider]

@pdutube Wasn't the sky amazing? Normally I would not have flown in such high winds but it was very steady and I wanted to capture images of the changing sky. It was so damn windy that I had few chances to even change direction. ;-)

SUPERULTRACOOOOOOOL!!! I think this is one of your best!! Excellent camera angle and perfect sunlight + clouds. Thanks so much Jon.

@35394691 Thanks Jorge! With enthusiasm like yours it keeps me motivated to improve.

Great video!

I like the wave or cap cloud at the beginning and the raptor.

[NMERider]

@flyhghgy Both of those are rare sites around L.A. Glad you enjoyed the cloud. I had to pull off the freeway and capture that from the shoulder.

Nice vid, Jonathon. That was a heck of a launch. Cool tunes by the way. Thanks....again.

[NMERider]

@NorthWinger Thanks! The launch looked pretty funny to my crew too!

[altairtime]

Nice editing! The array of clouds throughout the video was great!

[NMERider]

@altairtime Thanks. I almost set the camera for interval stills rather than video to better capture the changing skies. Glad you enjoyed the weather.

How was the flight with this kind of cloud over you?

[NMERider]

@jgilp Mostly the cloud cover made it cold but I couldn't really tell any other effect.
