There was another great weekend at Waikerie.
Saturday saw some good flying before the Clubs AGM. Several pilots were “away” for a few hours, under Cu with climbs to around 6000.
The highlight of the day however was the first “in-command” flight by Bradley McKay. After a few flights with Bill Mudge – it happened. Congratulations to Bradley on this milestone in his flying career – he had a smile when he landed that you couldn’t walk around. Well done Brad.
On Sunday, Matt Morgan went solo. Well done Matt! It was a good one.
It was good to see Graham Parker during Saturday afternoon: he flew in from Gawler in his AS G29.
Saturday’s flying finished early because of the Club’s AGM.
A separate report in Club forums will provide information and detail for members.
I thank those members who have contributed to the operations of the Club in the past 12 months – in particular to those who actively contributed to the Multi-class competition a big THANKYOU.
