CLUB'S SINGLE ASTIR & TRAILER
If we are to encourage more flying, more cross-country flying and more utilisation of the Club aircraft, it is imperative that not only the gliders, but the trailers too are in good order.
Martin Attwell writes:On Sunday we had to fetch the Single Astir151 out of a field just 7km away from the club but it took us 2 ½ hours to do so! The trailer is a mess, not to mention broken to such an extent that the elevator cradle no longer exists.
Martin says that if a Single lands out again it is going to take a miracle for someone to hook it up and fetch the glider.
Martin has offered and is willing to put in his time to fix the club's trailer, but only if the students/recently solo-ed pilots/ and/or the guys that fly the Single's are willing to help him.
He is free to do this on the morning of 10th March. So basically he is looking to get 8 - 10 guys to jump in and sort it out on the 10th and he expects that it should take no more than 2 - 3 hours of time.
