    They're drafting each other. If they are flying straight into the wind then it doesn't matter as the draft aid will be equal on either side. Probably flying with the wind as well.

    Cleaned up my processing area and ended up replacing some old wood skids with plastic.

    I know they draft but can't think why one side would be longer unless billb3 's answer is correct. Prithee enlighten me TurboDiesel .

    Calling for a low in the mid thirties so it was warranted. Let the fun begin!!

    I forgot to capture it, but I did fire up the stove yesterday morning. Probably need a warm up when I get home also.
