Lake Elsinore
Skunkworks
The socal marine layer wouldn't let up along the coast, so we decided to stay inland and checkout French Valley, it was a little bumby and visibility wasn't the best due to the haze.
French valley has a long runway and is non-towered, it is among the many tract homes and wineries in the area. We took the 15 freeway south and passed Lake Elinore. It was about here that SoCal dropped our flight following and traffic could be heard on the Elsinore advisory freq of 122.9. Lake Skinner was out the right window as we entered left downwind for runway 18. The restaurant was nice, just a few feet from the free transient parking and a wonderful view of the runway from either inside, or the patio.
