Saturday 11th October

Fine weather and beautiful blue skies all day provided the opportunity for pilots to start work on their Annual Flight Reviews (AFR). The K13 was re-weighed this morning by Stu Hoy and has been re-placarded lowering the minimum solo weight significantly.

The whole fleet came out and we flew both aerotow and winch - successfully using lights as the primary signal method for the winch. In addition to 5 air experience flights, we welcomed some new members; Miles Harrison (formally Cambridge GC) and Jay Craddock, 14, who is a friend of Art's son who also flew today. Paul Woodcock flew with Mark Wright and completed his passenger carrying endorsment. Jenny Novak and Paul Wilkinson did AFR flights with Paul starting his back seat training for BI.

Thanks to all that helped out to make it an enjoyable day.
