Gliding Sunday 21st Aug 2016

Winching under dull skies. There was a decent northerly up top and at times it was gusty on the ground. A wee Jabiru flew in from Taieri, not ideal microlighting weather!


John flew KG for a change, the first flight for well over 2 months! He winched up into the rotor and eventually got into wave. It was cold and lumpy but he flew up to St Bathans and down to Roxburgh, about 200km in the 2 hour flight.




Doug and Nick flew JW. It was pretty rough towards the end and Nick got some good experience handling JW in these conditions. Many thanks to Roland for driving the winch.
