Sunday 10th July 2011

Weather bright with light westerly breeze, backing south later.

We welcomed the Explorer Scouts today, who had a full and productive day under the watchful eye of Martin Cropper. Starting with a briefing in the clubhouse they were involved in all aspects of the operation, including assisting on the ground and observing the winch operations from close up. All 7 did extremely well and Martin was able to award them their "Air Activities" badge at the end of the day with lots of cameras clicking as some proud parents looked on. Thanks to the Scout Leader Ian Maneer for organising and leading this group of helpful Scouts.

Martin Broadway converted onto the Pirat today after a briefing from
Bob Pirie. Duncan flew in a glider for the first time and didn't stop
grinning the entire time---great fun and we hope to see him start
proper training.

Thanks everyone for making this day work so well.
