It may be global warming or maybe just plain old Hoosier luck but a
bunch of us had a goood time today flying the Blanik . Thanks to Bob
Currie the tow pilot a number of club members got to enjoy some quite
amazing gliding conditions on Christmas eve 2006.
The sky was clear, the winds almost nil and the mere opportunity to
soar on December 24 was a real thrill. The scenery was spectacular ,
we all got a little sun tanned (I kid you not) and some of us are now
current again. I've lived in Indiana for over 25 years and don't
really remember such a good day in late December.
So be sure to keep Jan 1 open . 87Z has now been "annualled " - it
does need another 45 minutes of "running in " time before towing , but
any interested tow pilot will be willing I'm sure to take care of that
before we start the 2007 season in style on Jan 1 .
Merry Christmas and see you Jan 1.
ZA.
