No flying today but huge laughs all round. First thing Simon L and
Mark C gave a talk on the local airspace, afterwards some bizarre map
folding took place, but without the expert guidance of our CFI it was
fair to say that the results resembled a pre-school classroom, tears
and all .
A group of slightly demented members decided to climb up the Bishops back , the conditions were extremely poor with snow and a bitter wind " great fun " they said -- yeah right !

Other members
were kept entertained by Simon L, his lectures on how to crash a model
glider then rebuild it were followed up by a practical demonstration by
Jimbob.

The results that can be obtained with super glue and fresh cats spit was impressive, if a little time consuming .
So a chilled day for most, flight planning has started for tomorrow as the forecast looks good , even Pete F rigged the Duo with the help of four youngsters with their hands in their pockets, impressive you might think , but considering Liam can eat, drink and sleep without once removing his hands from their fluffy homes it was par for the course for him!
Roll on tomorrow ! - Mark C
