The professionals...

A corporate event was hosted on Friday for a group of accountants, lawyers and bank managers none of whom had flown a glider before except Alison who arranged the event for the day. (Well, Geoff did the work but Alison invited some people!)

The group met at the clubhouse at lunch time for sandwiches and a briefing from Geoff on airfield safety. There were a few white faces around the table which changed to grins over the course of the afternoon. Dave was in his element – when not flying the tug he was on the field chatting to the guests who had commandeered the golf buggies for the afternoon – whizzing around smiling from ear to ear.

The most nervous guest prior to the event ended up flying on his wing tip by the end of the afternoon (followed by a cuddle with a crate of beer in the clubhouse afterwards). One guest, Zoe, was so enamoured of the club that she couldn’t drag herself away to go home and booked a room in the bunkhouse. A great day was had by all.
