Yesterday’s storm was the worst of a very bad winter. With this in mind it was not surprising that the club was quiet today.
Arriving at the club, Rick Wiles was already hard at work on the club computers. We tested the new online booking system that he has been writing. This will go live soon.
After this we made an inspection of the airfield and equipment which all seems to have survived very well. The Guslaunch winch started easily, the launch hut was where we left it and all the trailers were in the correct places. As expected, the runway is very,very wet.

Rick continued his day by fixing the driver door locks on the Gold and Green Discoveries and the drivers window on the Grey one. In his usual ( keep busy ) style, he and Allan Holland then proceeded to replace the header tank on the ML winch. The news for the ML winch’s injector pump is not good. The unit has now been sent to a specialist for rebuilding. This is always an expensive undertaking.

Outside, in the lee of the hangar, I could have believed that spring had arrived. The sun shone in a deep blue sky, it was pleasantly warm and even the birds were singing. What a difference a day makes.
Looking forward to the new season.
