Derrick's Day

Just a brief update on flying to day, a good day with some 7 members
enjoying good but cloudy weather and a light WNW wind 10Knts. All the
members enjoyed either extended ridge flights or got themselves checked
for re solo and some AFR checks.
Clive and Eric had the K6 out and were able enjoy to ridge lift for
four 20min  flights.

Brian Hucker got back in harness again after a bit of time off.

My personal highlight of the day was watching with interest Clive and
Eric putting the new covers on their K6. I can't see though why Clive
had a red triangle stitched to the tailplane cover. Perhaps it was
remove before flight alert?


Overall a lot of fun which completed a good week of ridge flying,
weather forecast suggest Sunday as an even better ridge day, don't miss it.
