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

Saturday 16th October

After the early morning low cloud cleared we were hopeful for some ridge action, alas the ridge was too westerly and too slight for the NNE 12kt wind, but good launches allowed training progress and annual check opportunities. Welcome to the 2 new members who signed up today.

Thanks to some hard work, the guys refurbishing the other K13 (JPC) have made significant progress and the argument over the final colour will soon be due.
