Sunday 17th August

A typical Sunday really. A bit quieter than usual because of morning rain. Half a dozen helpfuls got covered in parafin under Bob Grieve's expert guidance in the workshop during the rain. The Grob 109 fuselage now looks like its been through the dishwasher and the time saved meant Bob could fly his glider later on. We should all try to help out in the workshop if we can. It was fun!

The rain stopped as it was told to at 11:35 and thermals eventually took some of us to cloud base for some decent local soaring.

We winched off 210 grass running to the left hand side of our new water feature so avoiding making ruts in the grass close to the runway. It was more into wind anyway.

Thanks to all who helped.
