Folks,
So far only George and I have expressed an interest in flying Wed .
Would more be interested if we try Thursday ? - it also looks good .
Let me know and I'll work with Lynn to ensure we make it worth his
while to come on out to tow.

From: Mchuds

I'd like to thank George and Dave Newill for the reports on both the
board meeting and the membership meeting. It is wonderful to be kept
up to date on what is happening in the club if you are unable to
attend meetings.
Thanks again,

Fwd: No flying Sunday

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Mario
Dear fellow members,
We have to bow to Mother Nature.
The weather is not fit for flying tomorrow, and we must wait for a better day.
It is now official that flying on Sunday is cancelled.
Use the time to read a good flying book, and save your money for an
extra tow next weekend.
Mario.

Saturday 9/8 Flying: Delayed Start WASHOUT

Saturday, September 8 is a washout, with low ceilings and imminent thunderstorms. No flying today.

---------- Forwarded message ----------

Due to predicted low ceilings early Saturday morning, we will start
operations an hour late - The Crew should arrive at 10:00 and we will
start operations about 11:00. We hope we can get in some
instructional fights after the clouds lift and before the rain comes.

Fwd: Good Weekend

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Nyal Williams

The three days of Labor Day weekend netted the club 91 launches!
Adding the flights from Friday, the day before we achieved almost 100
launches for this long weekend (I don't have the exact count of the
number of instructional flights for Monday). The overwhelming
majority of these flights were instructional flights and several of
our students made excellent progress. Paula Johnson soloed on Monday.
Paula is an almost brand-new member; she joined the club in July and
was able to accrue 27 instructional flights across two months.
Congratulations, Paula! Now, as you promised you'd do, you must bring
your viola and play for all the instructors and crew that helped you
achieve this goal.

Fwd: Monday, Labor Day Flying

From: Nyal Williams

We are set up to fly on Monday. Instructors and Tow pilots will be on
hand to make a full day of it.

Altimeter adjustments

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Peter A Detore

Dear friends

1. Last weekend, we discovered that Charlie Sierra's Altimeter
Adjusting knob was broken off. That Altimeter was replaced with an
identical one. So, our Grob 102 (Astir) is good to go.

2. Please make note of this change... Our PW5 Altimeter is now
replaced with original one. The original PZL Altimeter is read in feet
X 100. Thanks for your attention to this detail.
Pete Detore
Happy Flying
