Saturday - by Robin Walker

Hello people,
 
Weather today was not very enticing with  a very few people here to fly. We have a young pilot visiting from Belguim who got the privilage to fly with Trevor West. Greg Dennis decided to do a check flight with Trevor too.
 
Christian took a  tow and came down again .
 
Flying finished early and we were set for a nice quiet night. Flynn, our visitor decided to go for a walk around the lake at 6pm. At 9pm no sign of him.
 
So Juho and I decided we better go look for him, drove around to the Kiosk and checked any parties and groups, then back around to the north end of the lake, back to the kiosk, back to the north end again, drove around all the little tracks.
 
Finally found someone that had seen him over an hour before on the track to  the side of the lake north end of field, gave him directions to the toilet block and to the club, missed the club and ended up over near the kiosk, mean while we did another trip to the kiosk and another trip around the north end of the field.
 
Lucky he got picked up by some people we had talked to so they drove him from the kiosk to the club, but they got lost and had to ask for directions too.
 
proves that visitors can get lost we need to be careful,
 
Robin
