Jeff McDonald contributed this short, 8mm camera movie (7.5 MB) shot during the celebrations of the Geelong Gliding Club's 50th anniversary in 1979.

It shows two dual tows from Bacchus Marsh to Belmont Common in Geelong (the place where the club was established in 1929) and back to the airfield.

The first dual tow consisted of the Callair and a Bocian (with Tommy Thompson and Doug Vanstan) and an Open Cirrus.

The second one was towed by the Super Cub, MSA piloted by Dave Slater and Jeff McDonald and a Libelle and a Cirrus piloted probably by Russell Dunn.
