It may just be a seperate thing, but i was flying yesterday in the traning area over Forrestdale Lake - and could see smoke over the hills heading east - It was alot of smoke from what i could see at an altitude of 6,500ft... so not 100% if this has anything to do with it...

no this would have been early morning like 2amish.I don't think you would have been flying at that time unless you are a really kean pilot

That was just south of Chidlow/Sawyers Valley. I think it was a CALM burn as it was pretty large but nothing on the fire channels about it.

Yeah it was a house fire - $100,000 damage. Too far for us

Thanks Turbo I knew you guys would be able to shed some light on what was happening.

Hehe, no worries
