Gravity Monday

MONDAY FLYING

You didn't miss a thing ! All of us who flew today (Monday) collectively stayed up for less than 30 minutes I believe .
And for once Dr Jack was wrong , or maybe the remnants of "Fay" moved into our area quicker than forecast .
My impression was that the guy who most wanted to keep flying was - you probably guessed it - Bob Currie He is most anxious to complete his 3000 tows and only has 24 to go . Sorry Bob no second tows were even considered after you dropped us in less than perfect lift !
The good news however is that the newly planted south runway looks fantastic, both from the ground and from the air - thanks to our professional turf manager . Next time you see Kurt tell him WELL DONE. With a little rain we should see green cover in the next month and maybe next spring we'll all be able to use the south runway.
Also a "headsup " for a social event at the club at the end of Summer ( SATURDAY SEPT 20 ) Plan to spend the evening with us at Alex after flying that day of course. Keep a look out for more news.
