Garry Speight and Rob de Jarlais came out to fly, and we had visitors Gus Furnell and his partner Chris from the USA visiting. Gus did a course with Garry and Ian McPhee in 1994 - before the fire! He works for Vans the makers of the popular RV aircraft kits. Geoff Sim flew IID, Todd's LS4. Jay Anderson flew up with Maren Goerdel, Graham Holland and his friend David Cant, but Allan Buttenshaw was notable by his absence! He was supposed to come up but got messed about by his work. Jay had to land at Gunnedah to wait for the fog to lift - it did before too long and the sun came out.
I flew the tug, Garry and Rob went to Emerald Hill and back in the twin astir, Geoff Sim had a beautiful flight along cloud streets to Gunnedah and Manilla and back or thereabouts, Richard flew the Jantar again - a good soaring flight this time. Jay flew with Maren in the Puchatek, and Gerhard flew with our US visitors in the Grob. Later Rob de Jarlais flew with David Cant in the twin astir, after he and Garry got back. Still soarable until quite late in the afternoon.
Jenny Luff from Goulburn Valley soaring club arrived in the afternoon - she's a recent soaring addict!
Richard Fethers has joined our club as a full member - I'm sure everyone will make he and Chris welcome.
A really nice day!
