Cruising Diamond Head

An orgy of air-horny bag jockeys were seduced out to the wind-kissed sea cliffs of Diamond Head yesterday, stimulated by the usual excited exclamations on the chatterbox. But only a lucky threesome managed to get themselves off. (Mad Dog already posted a story with all the sordid details, so this little post is just an excuse to share my pictures.)

Mad Dog took full advantage of the prefrontal SW flow to cruise unusually far out over the east end of Waikiki, while I hung back at a safe distance to watch the master in action and take some pictures.

Even though I didn't think it was a safe day for anyone to score their first taste of the Head, Big Island John proved me wrong, and muscled his way through the gap by force of sheer determination, nearly snagging every thorny bush surrounding the gap as he passed through. After getting off, he did an impressive job staying up, spending most of his time at the cliffs just past the lighthouse, swaying back and forth above the shiny red dome atop the massive white tower.

As we approached the beach to come in for a landing, we spied the usual assortment of nude sunbathers and cruisers, and we prepared ourselves for an exciting time in the stiff conditions down there. To our great relief we all touched down in a reasonably safe and controlled fashion, although our now very floppy bags required some manhandling to bring them under control.

Was this not even a little bit funny to anyone? I tested it on Dorothy and Logan and it got pretty good ratings, but then, we're pretty warped, I guess. I hope no one took offense. I thought a light treatment would be a nice change from my usual boring newscaster prose. Anyway, it was great to see everyone out there this weekend, almost 20 pilots by my count.

I was fully aroused on arrival at diamond, but found myself going limp watching all those things flopping around the launch area, no one should see that. Anyway, neither myself or my glider wanted to end up in that un-holiest of holes near launch, so after a short refractory period I moved on. Keep it up!

OK Alex just got home from work & first thing I said to La Peste: Alex has a creative way of telling a story! Isn't this article cool...
So yes I found it way amusing & I will try to keep up with your wizardry on the key pad. Fun flying with you & John today & can't wait to get that perfect D Head day.

I, too, was seduced by the wind-kissed sea cliffs and joined the air-horny orgy. However, the wind was not kissing the sea cliffs to my liking and I was unfortunate that I was not "in the mood" and could not join the lucky threesome. Fly-agra could not do anything for any of us today.

I am anxiously waiting to get virtually stimulated by exclamations on the chatterbox that discuss the wind kissing the sea cliffs that I'm used to. I'm ready for my usual "spots" to get aroused again. :D
