A little less wind please !

Wind , wind ,wind .... Short flight after the rain stopped in the morning . Flew to Moonie getting strong put down short of town .
Interesting area lots of wet areas only good for grazing ,, lots of roos and cattle . Spent the whole day in Mooonie population about 10 !! Wild pig hunting and fishing area for murray river cod.
Spent the day on the ground because of wind , very limited cell sevice .
Next day looked good flew to about 25km short of St George was making such good time 90km /hr then hit very rough air , how come you cannot seem to fly very far in OZ without hitting crappy air somewhere !!! It's flat here ! and all the same ...
Went into town and picked up Mark at 4pm comming back from Toowoomba, again too much wind for the evening .
Morning flight looked good after the rain ,went to check but it started raining again ,, wait, wait , ok let s try again, short flight into ST george about 30km to gusty and some rain in the way. No ground crew for 1 hr was very pissed off . No communication no, contact ! we have to have a group talk this is not working for me , it's getting more dangerous. cheers
