Monday 17 March

Arrived back at Lake Keepit with only 8 litres of fuel remaining - not quite a 40 min reserve but close! Flew to Wollongong on Sunday to see a friend and filled up there, but no fuel at Cowra this weekend. Was going to land at Mudgee to get some, but calculated I could make it without, and luckily I can calculate!

Rod Loder , Harry Medlicott and Wendy Medlicott in residence at the club, but neither Harry nor Wendy were keen to launch - busy working. Rod Loder fixed the clutch in the buggy, so now it is a goer again. Then he went flying, and flew Barraba Mullaley and back at least.

Plenty of cu about - it looked a good day.

Rang North West Aviation to see how they were getting on with the tug, and you guessed it, it won't be back for Easter. Spent much of the rest of the day on the phone trying to sort out another one, without much success. At least it solves the Good Friday and Easter Monday tuggie problem.
