Another Ok sort of day - but rather humid in the morning and storms forecast for the afternoon. I had a visitor with a gift voucher who came out in the morning, along with his uncle and son. I flew the uncle and son, but ran out of time to fly other chap as they had to go to Somerton for a meeting in the afternoon. Garry flew in his Twin Astir with John Trezise, and they flew the task that we had set in the morning, but no one else attempted it. We had a few relights - conditions were not so easy. After lunch, I found we had some more visitors and I did another two trial instructional flights. There was a huge thunderstorm over Tamworth at this time, and storms were rumbling around the field, but they appeared to be clearing up, so we launched anyway and found good lift.
The weather cleared up so I was looking around for someone to fly the Grob back to the hangar. Flynn had been helping with running the wing for the passenger flights, so I asked him if he would like the job. He accepted, but as it was a long time since he had flown a Twin Astir, I thought it might be best if I accompanied him. Just to make life interesting, I sat in the front and he in the back. It was a strange but interesting flight weather wise - some turbulence and a 180 degree wind change while we were in the air.
