Driving to YCAB this morning the clouds got lower and lower.  I really wondered how we would rig and de-rig aircraft when the rain started near Caboolture but miraculously we only had some light misty rain till we were almost finished.


A good crew turned up to assist.  Of course the residents, Speedy, Bert and Kevin were there plus David Higgs, Mick Moloney, Garrett with 2 grandees in tow, Alan Graham, David Guzzwell, Peter Stephensen, Karl Bodi, Alex Horvarth, Neil Schaefer, Bob Hainsworth and your's truely.  We started by rigging the Blanik GXQ then de-rigging the 30 GQA and storing it in the container the Blanik was in.   Neil couldn't resist and proceeded the mow where the 30 was.


While most of us were involved doing the Blanik and 30,  Speedy, Kevin and Alex de-rigged the Kookaburra onto it's trailer ready for the Watts week.   Kevin's orange rocket has also been de-rigged into it's trailer ready for Watts week.


I will be sending a separate latest planning email re Watts. 


Cheers
