After considerable efforts from Scratch, Nigel Williamson and Roger Appleboom to repair the Gus-Launch, flying commenced at 11oclock.

Richard Williamson flew with Dave Jesty to regain currency and went for a solo flight in the K13 DMX. Mike Keller then took DMX for a solo flight after which Roger Appleboom continued his training with Dave Jesty, before inclement weather brought flying to a stop.

Don honed his gardening skills by cutting a substantial amount of gorse and bramble from the east end of the field, continuing the ongoing spruce up of the club. Lectures from

Don about flight limitations and altimetry followed, with Nigel, Richard and Roger all furthering their ground school.

Although only a few flights were had, it was a constructive day for all involved.

Extra thanks to the winch-repair team!
