Hi all,

Saturday's flying started very slowly indeed.  10am saw the duty crew sitting in the shade between pie cart and shipping container wondering if the scheduled AEF was all we were going to accomplish today.  At that time, however, soon-to-be-member Michael Burnett arrived and asked us about the requirements for joining our sport and club.  Senior salesman Higgs began discussing requirements, options and 'career paths' while I retrieved printed information and paperwork; we had a new member before even beginning the day's Daily Inspections.

Welcome to the fold Michael

Yep, it was a late start today – after all we had to make sure the duty pilot had his breakfast first.

Just out of shot in the photo of Michael Burnett and Karl Bodi is Michael’s rather muddy leg. You have seen those videos where someone gets bogged and helpful bystanders lean in with a push, only to lose their balance when the vehicle suddenly gets traction and moves forward. Welcome to the diverse world of gliding - Speedy appreciated the help.
