Low cloud with occasional drizzle. Wind still from the SE. The assembled members though decided to forgo flying today to help with the runway and track repairs.

Ged Nevisky and digger. |
All this week Vice Chairman Colin Boyd has been leading gangs of volunteers repairing the winter ravages to the runway and centre track. They have hired in a digger and vibrating roller, and taken delivery of several lorry loads of crushed stone / gravel materials.

At work on the track |
All the attending members took part, some driving the equipment others working with rakes and shovels. By the end of the today, most of the airfield had been rolled, large stretches of the track had been relayed and the club roller filled with concrete. Good progress.

Other news today saw the arrival of club member Adrian Pike with a beautifully framed picture of The K13 on approach which he has presented to the club for display in the clubhouse. Many thanks Adrian.

So thanks goes to everyone that either has already helped or is planning to during the rest of the week.
Let’s hope Saturday is a good flying day.
