Dartmoor Gliding News-Saturday 4th December 2021

The weather is still not playing ball. Strong, gusty winds with very frequent showers was enough to discourage even the most keen glider pilot.

Pot of gold anyone?
There was plenty of activity at the airfield though. In the Vehicle Hangar rick and scratch were repairing the fuel tank retaining cradle on the Jeep. This seemed to require them having very dirty faces all day.

In the clubhouse Heather was leading the spring (winter?) cleaning efforts. Several Committee members spent some hours discussing the Exeter airspace change proposals before encouraging Gavin to write our response to the consultation. He is attending a meeting with them next week.

Hoping for flying weather soon.
