Friday 19th
A busy day with Dick, Bruno and Dave Perkins, 44 flights with a bit of soaring - and congrats to Eric who did an amazing flight in his K6 to East Anglia, landing at Rattlesden thereby setting the goal post for the Far Point Trophy (furthest landout from site in a glider) see his flight here http://www.bgaladder.co.uk/dscore.asp?FlightID=33949. Meanwhile, Graham flew 311km in his Lak.
Bruno, Chris P and others went to fetch DDB's wing from Bicester and it was rigged and ready by the end of flying.

Saturday 20th
We welcomed the Sporting Bears fund raising group, with 18 flights a big thank you to instructors Dave Perkins, Paul Fletcher, Paul Duffy, and to John Donovan for flying some around in the motorglider.  Nigel Clarke did a stunning job as LPC (anyone who wants to learn this job needs to pitch up on his day and see how its done properly!), and Gordan Clarke helped organising the paperwork and glidex.  Thanks to Rowan for towing and Andy and Bob who drove the winch - the turn around with a seperate tow out driver was superb.  We actually achieved cables arriving with no gliders on the launch queue!  And the new bus was given a run up to ferry people to and from the club house.  As the visitors were all petrol heads, they all thought this was a bonus - I think they were counting the types of vehicle they had been in that day!  All our visitors had a great time and an evening BBQ and we hope to see a few of them come back again.  We raised around  £700 for the club and the fundraisers made around £50 for charity.  Thanks again to all the club members who helped, we couldnt have done it without you.
