The occurrences and happenings at Shalbourne Soaring Society. A gliding club near Andover, Newbury and Hungerford.

Sat 2nd, Sun 3rd

Saturday was a blustery one, sadly with the wind 180deg opposed to the ridge direction... Ken P provided instruction and a few extended flights. Much more work was done in the hangar, new launch point caravan and assorted mottled trailers. JPC is now fitted with FLARM - please can all pilots (including P2s, excluding TLs) sign the brief briefing sheet in the log before flying.

Sunday was soarable. It wasn't epic and it seems from the ladder no-one went cross country west of the Greenwich meridian but it was soarable, this with a reasonable blow meant high winch launches and with 2 rated instructors excellent training opportunities - make sure to use them next time.
