Kerry Stevens RV-8a site

Mt Hood

This flight was with Michael Runyan (part time flight instructor, and Morgan Brown (boot camp engr).  Light winds but the inversion layer was very high (almost 9000 ft).  We were flying 5440H which has a 160 hp lyc, so we were climbing at about 100ft/min for most of the flight, and it took us most of the trip to Mt Hood to get to 10,000 ft. .
