Sunday 19th October

Will Day was duty dog. It was definitely starting to feel autumnal with a moderate SSW wind which allowed us to achieve winch launches to over 2000ft. Some A/Ts also took place to take advantage of the reduced prices for Annual Refresher Training for stalling & spinning. A reporter from 'The Mercury' (local paper) came for a trial lesson and tried both winch and A/T. Ben volunteered to fly her and Sharon seem to enjoy the experience very much. We may have even got ourselves a new member! We look forward to reading the report. I also did some instructing, to help make best use of the 2-seaters and get everyone flown. A good day was had by all. Photo: Ben & reporter Sharon waiting to launch.
