Andy & Ian Get Ready To Make The First Launch! |
The front had gone through around 03:30BST and Andy & Stuart L had got the ball rolling for the "Dawn 'til Dusk" operation to celebrate the clubs 21st Anniversary by positioning the winch and unpacking the hangar with John D, Jon C and Jane J by the time Jan & I arrived at 04:15. Andy and I took the first launch at 04:41 with John D and his guest Phil S in DVX shortly after. Then the "late-commers" arrived starting with Gavin (who got there to see our landing!) followed by Bob & Sue, John L, Lucy, Dave T, Khardthi (The Human Cannonball - Really, honest!!), Paul D, Dave L-M, Mary and a few of "The Juniors".

Gary B got the first soaring flight of the day at 08:40!!!...and so it went on with the momentum building as Bruno arrived around 09:15 to take over the airfield with Mick F, and Tez as LPC. Dave Perkins soon also arrived and the A/X folks started to roll in, including old member Richard Chapman who had his first flight in 10 years with Phil B. Then our old friend Hans G-H turned up from Germany! |
