Summer students, trips to Santa Cruz, Mexico, a single-engine pilots license, a commercial gilder pilots license, fixing the Grob, paying it off, working for the air survey company, getting ready to teach a 400 level engineering course at UH Maui College, visits by family and friends as well as just trying to maintain a bit of life and fitness took about all the time I had. I've had a chance to catch up on the photography for the last 6 months.... Hopefully I won't slip too bad again.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17377967-7898503672990951751?l=geekedout42.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>geekedouthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05453521134973261461noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17377967.post-51693134768753385062010-12-24T17:38:00.000-10:002010-12-26T17:44:44.063-10:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/TRgKylaL9oI/AAAAAAAAHvw/KX9F4F4-YLs/s1600/2010-12-24-Xmas-Party-15-Blog.jpg"><img style="display:block;

I doubt I'll be able to do a day of flight like this for a very very long time. Cliff flew the Cardinal over to Maui so we could go on a few long flights. In the morning, I flew with the REUs Shannon and Brian from Kahului to Hana, Upolu, along the north HI coast, stopped in Hilo for breakfast, took off and got to the lava, climbed up over saddle, and took high pass back around south Maui. In the afternoon, Pascale Amanda and I took a twilight pass around south Maui, climbed up over the saddle, dropped down on to the lava at twilight then stopped off in Hilo for a dinner with a few people Pascale knew before doing a night flight back home. 7 hours total..... What a ride.

The Swiss, Dutch, Sweedish and other mafias fro SPW6 converged on the summit for dinner and stargazing. The Haleakala Amateur Astro group brought out a bunch of scopes and there was some fantastic gear. And of course, I took a bunch of data with the new detector to hopefully calibrate it....

Go figure. I managed to have a Japanese dinner at the "bar" around the grill with an onion turned in to a fire-fountain all while debating the merits of various modulation strategies for single and dual beam spectropolarimeters. At another dinner, Christian, David Hiriart and I downed a bottle of wine while discussing decoupling of instrumental broadening from zeeman-component-deconvolution algorithms via iodine cells or thorium-argon emission spectrum measurements. And all the while, I was catching up on my accounting and Billy picked up the fully repaired Grob engine!

I brought my wetsuit + extra "shirt".... finally I was warm in the water. Clear water, no waves, and lots of tasty... I mean pretty looking fish. </div><div><br /></div><div>After the swim we went to Dillingham and proceeded to try to launch the Lark with some rope and my car. Yes, it sounds ghetto, but my car totally had the power. It's just that the rope was junk and broke every time the Lark got up to 20-50 feet. Cliff basically had to do 4 rope-break training flights. We ended up getting a tow from Elmer mid field. Cliff thermaled up to 2500 and I got to do a Clover Leaf. Then I caught one up to 3500 and Cliff quarter-cloverleafed in to inverted a couple times, then we clover-leafed it down to land. I think the rope breaks scared Pascale off flying for a while. </div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/TAVHj9y8aQI/AAAAAAAAHRc/LkPP5prypXI/s1600/2010-05-22-Sharks-Cove-Fish-79-Blog.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/TAVHj9y8aQI/AAAAAAAAHRc/LkPP5prypXI/s400/2010-05-22-Sharks-Cove-Fish-79-Blog.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477863204975307010" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/TAVHjC_U_mI/AAAAAAAAHRU/B5CqfPsAsV4/s1600/2010-05-22-Sharks-Cove-Fish-50-Blog.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/TAVHjC_U_mI/AAAAAAAAHRU/B5CqfPsAsV4/s400/2010-05-22-Sharks-Cove-Fish-50-Blog.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477863189189557858" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/TAVHi1VkykI/AAAAAAAAHRM/5ntbxT1rHXA/s1600/2010-05-22-Sharks-Cove-Fish-28-Blog.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/TAVHi1VkykI/AAAAAAAAHRM/5ntbxT1rHXA/s400/2010-05-22-Sharks-Cove-Fish-28-Blog.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477863185524771394" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/TAVHieHlZPI/AAAAAAAAHRE/h6yoOONl3I4/s1600/2010-05-22-Sharks-Cove-Fish-15-Blog.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/TAVHieHlZPI/AAAAAAAAHRE/h6yoOONl3I4/s400/2010-05-22-Sharks-Cove-Fish-15-Blog.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477863179292075250" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/TAVHiPQvUPI/AAAAAAAAHQ8/TeuLsS8aY0M/s1600/2010-05-22-Sharks-Cove-Fish-02-Blog.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/TAVHiPQvUPI/AAAAAAAAHQ8/TeuLsS8aY0M/s400/2010-05-22-Sharks-Cove-Fish-02-Blog.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477863175303942386" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17377967-7791035923979200506?l=geekedout42.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>geekedouthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05453521134973261461noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17377967.post-17770854625549605902010-05-21T19:22:00.000-10:002010-06-01T07:32:52.350-10:00<div>Think little mermaid..... and that damn orientation video....</div><div><br /></div><div>Pascale is such a fish - before I finish taking a picture she's half a mile off shore.

Well, depends on what kind of flight but anyways, we took off from Honolulu, landed on Molokai (Kalaupapa), landed in Kahului, Maui, then landed in Hana before climbing up over the Haleakala Crater. Flying by the windward rim of Haleakala was fantastic. We were 10,500ft up and got to cruise high all the way back to Dillingham. Joanna picked up the crew and I flew back to Honolulu via Kalaeloa later that day. What a ride. </div><div><br /></div><div>Tomek took some fantastic pictures and videos.

We did auto-tows to launch the Lark. It's a weird thought but all you need is a pickup truck going 50ish to get yourself up on the ridge. Cheap and you climb like a kite 45 degrees up. Very cool. So I did 6 training flights and got my auto-tow endorsement so I can do that with friends now. Fun times. Now, an even funnier thing is that we actually broke a rope and I had to do an emergency landing. But, since I was doing training flights, the instructors usually pull that on you at some point. I thought Doug was just messing with me. Come to find out, it was for real. At any rate, Brad and I went up and were able to soar for quite a long time. I got in 8 loops, 2 clover leafs and a few other goodies. </div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/S_Bha-sWieI/AAAAAAAAHO8/tvh_nmL_wMU/s1600/autotow.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 150px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/S_Bha-sWieI/AAAAAAAAHO8/tvh_nmL_wMU/s400/autotow.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471980663388670434" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/S_BhaYqamvI/AAAAAAAAHO0/Sb2UnJPn7mI/s1600/lark5.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/S_BhaYqamvI/AAAAAAAAHO0/Sb2UnJPn7mI/s400/lark5.png" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471980653180001010" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/S_BhZpQ7wQI/AAAAAAAAHOs/3Ydk-UP_LIk/s1600/lark4.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 299px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/S_BhZpQ7wQI/AAAAAAAAHOs/3Ydk-UP_LIk/s400/lark4.png" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471980640456655106" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/S_BhYxzh7QI/AAAAAAAAHOk/Iw5dy-lndDE/s1600/lark2.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 301px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/S_BhYxzh7QI/AAAAAAAAHOk/Iw5dy-lndDE/s400/lark2.png" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471980625569377538" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/S_BhYO_0nMI/AAAAAAAAHOc/ZNhjvfFVKDU/s1600/lark1.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 301px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0wVrx0ij8z8/S_BhYO_0nMI/AAAAAAAAHOc/ZNhjvfFVKDU/s400/lark1.png" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471980616225692866" /></a><br /><object width="320" height="266" class="BLOG_video_class" id="BLOG_video-e0269870e1fb6bc6" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/get_player"><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"><param name="flashvars" value="flvurl=http://v11.nonxt1.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3De0269870e1fb6bc6%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1330312856%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3DD0B92F8F68A2A0E79BAA81A54C3E67579C91741.A89C5B41C10FA6E447841E0455A5015C89C4869%26key%3Dck1&amp;iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3De0269870e1fb6bc6%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3DfdZ-CQYEZo5NG4okV4fHvzLD0LQ&amp;autoplay=0&amp;ps=blogger"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/get_player" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"width="320" height="266" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"flashvars="flvurl=http://v11.nonxt1.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3De0269870e1fb6bc6%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1330312856%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3DD0B92F8F68A2A0E79BAA81A54C3E67579C91741.A89C5B41C10FA6E447841E0455A5015C89C4869%26key%3Dck1&iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3De0269870e1fb6bc6%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3DfdZ-CQYEZo5NG4okV4fHvzLD0LQ&autoplay=0&ps=blogger"allowFullScreen="true" /></object><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17377967-5104260482580947019?l=geekedout42.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>geekedouthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05453521134973261461noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17377967.post-42866153492940629732010-05-14T22:53:00.000-10:002010-05-16T10:58:16.914-10:00<div>I went up to the airfield to take care of a few things and meet with Steve &amp; Billy.
