The day started with a thunderstorm, but cleared up by about 11.00 am, and we got the gliders and tug out. Rob de Jarlais was here to fly the tug, but fancied a bit of instructing, so we swapped and I flew the tug.
Students this week are 16 year old Stephen Tridgell, and Mick Daniels from Tamworth. Mick is a former power pilot, though many years ago. He has joined the club as a full member so he will be around for a while!
We also had a visitor from Moree today, Rob Jakins. He flew for 4 hours in the Grob 103 with Gerhard! He has been a glider pilot before, so this was not a baptism of fire!
The storms returned in the afternoon, and we had to pack up at about 4 O'clock. Just got a bit wet putting the gliders away.
