Dartmoor Gliding News-Saturday 10th August 2019

With yellow warnings for damaging winds from the SW in the Met Office forecast, this was always going to be a non flying day. Why was this not a named storm?

Looking down the runway towards the east end.
Seems quiet - but there was a SW gale blowing. 

Some of the assembled members got on with the important business of socialising with a little work thrown in. Several more members had other ideas and they got on with enough work to make a person tired just listing it. Thanks chaps. ( and girls)

Gus Launch underwent a starter motor change 

"It is an ill wind that blows nobody any good" and making use of the non flying day, the committee started their meeting at 3pm which allowed them to finish and head off by a very early 6pm.
