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

Sunday 26th

Typical Bank Holiday weather resulted in flying only on Sunday of the long weekend.  The sunny Sunday did bring out the visitors looking for the opportunity to experience our sport - 7 of them plus the father and son who had flown with us the previous Sunday and were back for more.  Richard D (duty instructor) and myself were kept fully occupied in the backseat from 11:00 to 18:00.  4 gliders rigged and disappeared off (EEF and 737 clocking up 7 hours between them) and 1 Lasham glider dropped in.  Special mentioned should be made (and thanks given) to the small number of members that kept the ground operation running smoothly.
