Sun 21 September

 Peter Field was our Duty Instructor for today, after Briefing, we walked the gliders up to the west end of the airfield. James Flory was also onsite so stepped in to help with the list. It was pretty gusty, but fortunately was straight down the airfield, so launches were a good height, even though the flights were fairly short. 


Gill Morrison took a flight in her new toy (JEU) Libelle. 

Gill converted to Libelle (Phil Morrison)

Flying continued throughout lunch, with Pete Smith also helping to instruct, meaning they could tag team the K21’s to avoid stopping. 


The Trial Lesson was flown by Dave Perriam, he seemed to have fun, (the Trial Lesson not Dave!) Flying was completed by 5:15pm, with everyone training getting three flights each, everything was packed away by 6:00pm, and we returned to the clubhouse for a warming cup of tea. It was a chilly day, but the sun poked its head through the clouds at times, and we had a good day. Thanks to everyone who mucked in and helped. - Sally Hender
