The week to Wednesday 20 May

Weather at Lake Keepit was pretty good, but a bit windy on Saturday. I elected not to fly home as the weather forecast for Cowra was terrible, and I was worried about getting back again in time for my students on Monday morning. Stayed at home and tried to do tax returns (late) instead - what fun.

Sunday was very busy with airforce cadet flying - tug up and down all day. Weather clouded over - the indian summer seems to be over.

My students  turned up on Monday morning. Conditions were blustery and cool with a brisk easterly wind, and we were unable to soar. However we did some training - 3 flights each, and both doing well. However the heavens opened on Tuesday, and they wisely decided to go home and return next week instead.  We had a long committee meeting by phone conference on Tuesday evening

Today, Wednesday, has been cold, wet and miserable - but suprisingly people are still contacting me wanting to learn to fly in winter! Good news. 

The weather is forecast to clear up by the weekend, so I hope it will be fine again next week because there's quite a bit on.
