Aerodynamic Observation Post

Morning light hit the balcony floor, indicating ideal conditions to test high-altitude observation. Moving from the solar lantern, I climbed the lower horizontal rail and ascended to the top metal banister using the relocated wooden clothespin as my primary step. Up here, a steady thermal current was moving past. I unlocked my lateral back joints and tilted both wing panels forward by fifteen degrees. The oncoming draft created immediate downward friction against my feet, locking my flat footplates firmly against the painted steel. With zero lateral wobble, the entire neighborhood avenue unfolded below in sharp gridlines.
