    Tuesday was a great day. Started with 5 CAP flights followed by 11 club flights. Animesh practiced for his test, John B practiced patterns with a wave-off in the mix. Don took Greg and the Krosno out for an hour and Petr was gone for 2 1/2 hours.

    Thanks to Mark for towing and Greg for cutting grass around the tiedowns.

    Wednesday looks quite nice. The Practical Exam begins at 10am. Temps upper 70’s winds light. Lift up to 3k. Come on out!

    Thanks, Rich. It was a good day. 16 flights total. A lot of training (including crosswind takeoffs and landings). Thanks to Gary and Don for towing. A big CONGRATULATIONS to Nick for stopping by after successfully passing his ASEL certification.

    No flying today but thanks to Grep P and Griffin most of the grass is mowed and 5 brand new ropes are ready for the weekend.

    See you all tomorrow.

    Thursday? Friday? Any interest? Light winds, temps in the low 80’s. Some lift but marginal.

    RSVP as always.

    Excellent weekend! Great to see so many taking advantage of the club atmosphere. It was hard to stay home on such a nice day but I look forward to seeing some of you on Tuesday.

    Wow, what a day! 27 total flights. Several old and new friends. Griffin had his first glider solo. John, Gary and Mark towed. A great time was had by all.

    Oh, did I mention 4 rope breaks?
