The day was sunny and the were cu's over the hills. We thought it might get soarable here, but there wasn't much. Trevor West, John Wakefield, Bob Emery Vic Hatfield, John Hoye and Craig Borchard came out to the club.We rigged the Mosquito GKW, (1/3 mine) and it looks good after all the work Tom Gilbert has done on it. Unfortunately I wrenched my back in the process, so John Hoye stepped in to fly the tug today. Thanks John.
Trevor decided that mushrooming was a better bet than gliding, and he found heaps. We cooked some up with the sausages for lunch. In the end only Craig and Vic flew.
Craig is a new member from Kootingal, and had his first gliding lessons with Vic today. The poor chap had four instructors keeping an eye on him and overloading him with information. Those of us on the ground thought he must be doing really well, as he was on to modified circuits on only his second flight!
