Beautiful Day!

Blue skies and another busy day. DW ran the day with Tony T helping out. There were several soaring flights with Graham P (Lak) and Al C (Duo - with Lucy as P.2) going XC. Several pilots soared locally including Reg W, from BFGC, who flew his Nimbus and Jan A in her ASW-20. Thanks to Dave H who managed to resource the Robin coming back from the comp at Bicester so we could do some A/Ts, and for Ted Norman for ferrying both ways. We had a couple of comp landouts from HB, one of which took a placed tow home providing a nice detour for Ted! Others out included several folks from Bowland plus Paul B, Tim D, and Malcom R.

Special thanks to Dave Smith who spent much of the day working round the flying operations clearing the 'folliage' off the hard runways so they are clear for our regionals.
