The day started with a very low cloudbase and very strong south easterly winds. This delayed the flying start
But, ever resourceful, the assembled members used the down time to complete the cleaning, polishing and oiling service on both of the 2 seat gliders ahead of the scheduled dates. Don was to be found in lecture mode for the trainee pilots.
By lunchtime conditions had improved so there was an almost indecent haste to get flying..
Today there were a lot of new faces. We welcomed Mike Harris, a lapsed Silver C pilot, Warwick Parramore ( yes, Sean’s son ) who is just starting out on his flying career and Mike Gadd a returning lapsed member.
Welcome everyone and nice to see you enjoying the conditions.
Steve
