Firstly
my apologies for the late report. As beautiful a day
as Saturda was, it was relatively uneventful on
the gliding front.
Aside
from L2 Dave Donald, AEI Rod Wilson, Tug Pilot Steve
Chapman and myself,
no members turned up to take advantage of the blue
skies. However between
our L2 and AEI there were 3 friend/family flights
planned for the ay. After CQC was DI'd and the
mini-piecart (read: Barina) was prepared we headed
down to RWY30 for start flying. Nick Sheahon also made
a mid-morning appearance
for a chat after some flying in his own in the Piper
Cub.
After
Dave Donald and Rod Wilson both had their first
passenger flights for the
day, a tail wind began to pick up, and a move to RWY12
was organised where
Speedy joined us for a pre-lunch launch. Rod Wilson
flew his second passenger
as the final flight for the day, and all operations
were finished by
lunchtime.
Stats
for the day:
CQC
3 launches 1hr 08mins
It's
nice to finally see some nicer weather around YCAB,
let's hope we can all
get some flying in before the spring/summer rains
arrive!
See
you at the field
