Amid the ever-changing weather conditions –
sunshine, lowering cloud base, rain showers, bits of ridge/thermal/wave
lift/rotor – there was the constancy of the luminous, green hat! It threaded its
way through every facet of the ground operations and even took to the air. Its
cheerful, hard-working presence defined the day. Club members, DLMs, instructors – John P and
Ian M, helped by Stuart P, James H, Steve W and Paul S – and tug pilot Robin
W-F worked tirelessly to ensure constant flying. Private gliders LS3 and ASW 29
were rigged and flew. The K6 HEB was taken over by the junior members, who between
them managed to keep it airborne for most of the day. Their constant help at
the launch point between flights was greatly appreciated. Congratulations to Luke
who converted to the Junior after a check flight with Stuart.
In short a very busy, happy club flying day. Oh, and by the way, especial thanks to “the day glow hat” aka Richard D!!! - Wendy W-F
