Sundays is special to me. I always head down to the field short of super heavy wind/rain. We have a nice pot belly stove and a BBQ in the shed so if it gets really bad at least we can have a good meal and chat.

Occaisonally we have night fly-ins. These basically constitute flying in the dark under spot light. Believe it or not, and I checked, we actually comply with our local regulations doing this. In reality it's another excuse for a huge BBQ, some crazy night flying with electrics, and a few drinks (post flying). To make things civilised we run a genset to power the lighting in the shed. Some guys sleep over the night depending on how much they have had to drink.

Our last night fly in consisted of zero flying. The rain was pouring down (sidewards) and the wind was a gale. It got so bad we even closed the shed door which made it rather toasty inside (25C vs 5C).

The moral is: Within limits don't let the weather turn you away from going down to the field and having a social day with everyone else. Have a BBQ and do what flying you can. Rain and wind isn't an excuse if you keep it sensible.
