The occurrences and happenings at Shalbourne Soaring Society. A gliding club near Andover, Newbury and Hungerford.
Wednesday 3rd
First flying day of the club's new year. We weren't able to match the eternity that is 22 minutes but 7 (of the 21 flights) did make it to double digits. Mainly westerly but the wind did shift a little more southerly and launches of just over 2,000' (in the K13's, K8 was the hangar queen) were on offer. Rob J set the target to beat of 14 minutes which Peter M matched a couple of launches later. Paul Mc did a great job keeping the Puchacz launching as everyone else wanted the higher launches provided by the K13's. We were pleased to welcome Charles Mc as our newest member.
