Hey all,
Saturday saw heaps of people ready to fly with a passenger, Edna Bradburn, from Nambucca heads arriving at 11am. Edna had been given the flight for her birthday, and had been arranging it for some time.
The forecast for the day was reasonable but was going to be blue.
It should have been a good day. Trevor West turned up to scratch and itch, Garry came out to fly and we had two hang gliding friends of Jenny's here from Boonah, Mike Zupanc and Mike Rose. Mike Rose had his Pik 20e. Jenny got offered a flight in the Pik and took it sat morning early before heading to Cowra and Temora to pick up her glider.
Edna had a great passenger flight with Rob De Jarlais and wants to come back again. Trevor and Garry went up and down. Gabriel got to fly the pik too so he is very happy after flying the LS7 for the first time this week then flapped ship too. Off course he went flying in the pik and the LS7 but just up and down like the others.
Sunday you should have all been here, 300km weather, with cu's to 4500 above ground and some nice streeting.
John Hoye and Christian came out with the barbecue for next weekend, I launched at 12 and got into good lift with a lot of drift, but headed for Barraba, got to Gainey's and then changed to go towards Kaputar Over the flat it was working well and streeting so I ended up just northwest of Narabri 101km from home, south along some streets to Nea station and back to Wean Race course and then home for a beer.
After me Christian, Gabriel and John Hoye took launches but had a hard time finding lift to get away.
Thanks to all members on duty this weekend
Robin
