A nice sunny day at the club although still very cold. Whilst Mark C was
sunning himself on yet another holiday, James covered his shift during
the morning. Only a few members today all of whom flew, plenty of launch failure
practise for James F who then filled his boots getting his solo
flights in. And also today, one of those very rare real cable breaks, only one member on site was able to splice so
maybe we need to have another training session on that prior to the
summer activities.
Last to fly was Ray R, who I promised a hangar
flight to make sure that he didn't go home disappointed, he took full
advantage and we ended up with some soaring too, so big grins from him.

Thanks to Ian M who managed to get another starter motor for the Pawnee and fitted it with help from Stu and James H - and it started first time with gusto, so should be OK for tomorrow.
All in all, a grand day out! - Lisa
