- reverse sierras wave from Williams along the western sierras to Lassen and back.
- Crewless straight out from Hollister to Warner Springs near the Mexican border and return to Hollister the next day (aka Travel by glider)
- Another Travel by Glider to Warner Springs, this time from Truckee, but instead of returning to Truckee the next day, continued to Lakeview Oregon for a 1050 km straight out distance (start to finish), my longest straight out flight and 2024 SSA Barringer trophy.
