The forecast didn't look great, but the day developed into a great one.  We had a good turnout, and even the late people (delayed due to minor car trouble) arrived before 9.30!!!  Ales, Dejan, Frank, Ailsa, Alf, and Gordon all got two flights in.  Ales also did his first 1 hour solo in VH-OWL and after a reminder radio call, he landed, grinning from ear to ear.  

After the lift died out, we had a chance to do some short launches with very stable air.  Spiro and Rolf worked hard on instructing with Mike and James keeping us moving with towing.   

Alan flew a couple of AEFs too, as well as a fitting in a quick flight in the LS3.   

VH-XOC was also deriggged and stripped down for a Form 2 - so thanks to the guys in the workshop for getting that started.  

Tomorrow may be better than we thought too.   Be there or be square!  Wink 

Cheers, Alf 

 

Tug in sunset.  Tuggies rock!
