Gliding 18th Sept 2016

A great day's soaring! John flew visiting pilots from the US, Amy and Barry, Both got soaring flights at the start of the day. Nick had 2 solo soaring flights in JW and Masato returned from Japan and had a quick flight with John.
Roland had the best flight, after driving the winch for for the start of the day he launched in VH and flew to Bannockburn and back, reaching 5000'.

We were very short on numbers, so a big thanks to everyone who helped keep us going. Derek drove the winch later in the day and Wills supervised everybody but never got a flight. We ended early to attend the planning meeting for Blossom festival fly-in, and had a pleasant beer and BBQ around 5pm.
