| Visibility not good early on in the day |
First up was an exert from "Fiddler on the Roof"---
Would it spoil some vast eternal plan if i were a soaring ( wealthy) man ???
Then I heard some noise filtering down from the runway.
Hoh ah, hoh ah
That's the sound of the men
Working on the drain (chain), gang
The members were up on the airfield finishing the project to install another land drain at the west end. This marks a landmark (pun absolutely intended) in the series of heavy ground works to improve the site which has seen the tracks repaired, the entrance resurfaced, the car park repaired and several areas around the clubhouse and trailer park leveled and resurfaced. The hero here has to be Phil Harwick who has brought his own plant to the field and worked tirelessly to get all the work done. Thanks must also go the project coordinator Mike Bennett and all the members who provided their labour.

In the clubhouse, we continued using the simulator to help Roger Green to learrn the patter for his up and coming BI course. Outside the hangar, Scratch continued the tractor refurbishment. He has replaced the door hinges, re-manufactured the door stops and the floor.

Hoping for better weather soon.
