    Let’s hope we don’t run out of fuel this week.  As was mentioned to 2 board members Sat, the supplier ( Jerry Wilkomm Inc, Kenosha WI.) was contacted last week, but our delivery driver either fired or quit, and no-commitment heard back to me yet as to next delivery from JWI management for Recreational no- ethanol auto fuel.   We are at 250 gal, reorder at 200.

    The best SSI contact for the past 100 LL AV gas supplier AVALON from 2017 is John Baker, he’s best to contact them if we are in a crunch.

    Any comments on the Kathryns Report concerning the standard Schweitzer towhook on the T.P. ?……the report mentioned about the popular standard STC mounting and release swing……That the high-position kited glider can make the towpilot’s side jam,  no release.

    Congrats Aaron!

    But wait, what just happened is not what was discussed at the April Web-meeting, nor what Flight Chairman’s recent forum posting said how first flights were going to be.

    My understanding was No Dual for a while.

    Did the season Start-Up rules change? I’m confused

    All, at the zoom meeting, I forgot what the reason was, for considering the need for a Reservation system.

    Was it to keep the number of members to a minimum, while out at field Ops?

    Was the first-come-first-serve, sign the sheet usual method seen in 2019, to be not working anymore?

    How would the Day-members offers, fold into a reservation method?

    I hope I can get in.
    <div dir=”auto”>I registered a week before the April 14 webinar on Thermaling, accepted, but was locked out on that evening during sign-in, due to too many on-line participants.</div>

    The past group Winch training (May, 2018) was very valuable, should be repeated, ….somehow, for 2020. Lots of moving parts…
