I thought we were going to have some postings on wave today. Yes I know surface winds were low to non existent. But up high things were different. So I had 2 options for these conditions. Get a tow and come off tow at about 5,000 feet agl (10,000 feet asl) with the SparrowHawk or take the Jabiru (LSA power plane) out and enjoy the wave with a heater so that I don't have to suffer the cold at high altitudes. So I don't need to tell you which I chose.

Above 9,000 feet msl I found good wave and throttled down to just above idle. Was soon up to 18k and flew along eastern Sierras. Beautiful conditions with the engine close to idle. Next time I think I will request wave window and take the little LSA up to 28k. I sure am glad that most pilots don't appreciate the beauty of the wave. Why was I the only pilot enjoying the wave today? I think most people can't think outside the box.
