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

Saturday 10th March-spring is sprung?

Despite losing most of the morning waiting for the mist to burn away a great day was eventually had by all.

We made the most of not having any single seaters out and made good use of the Puchacz and K13's. Not a great day for staying up but many extended soaring flights were there to be had. Alan Pettit in the Skylark clocked up a credible 30 mins or so mostly not above 900ft!

Congratulations to Jon Garner for convincing Carol to sign him "Off Checks"......well done!

Not sure how many flights were flown as I did not see the log but Carol and I were certainly kept busy, what a cracking day!
