Flew to Mt Rifter (west of Mammoth airport). I carried 30 gallons of water in the wings, and 3.5 litter in the tail. I think Harry Fox had
the best flight of the day. He flew Pegasus without water, flew over 500km, and achieved 118km/h. He had a stretch of 163 km without circling on his way back from the south to Truckee.
After coming back to Truckee, a very good (7 - 10 kts) lift over Brokeway pass brought me back to 16,500 ft, so I used it to make an extra trip to Sierraville.
