Ray Ash, who will be 86 in a couple of weeks had the best soaring flight in the two seater, accompanied by Allan Buttenshaw. Ray said he hadn't flown an aerotow launch for about 20 years, but it was like riding a bike - you don't forget. He had never flown a fibreglass glider before although he owns or part owns about 5 wooden ones! Plastic presented no problems for Ray, and Allan said he was just a passenger in the back seat!
Tim Brooks achieved his first solo flight in a glider, although it has to be said he has a lot of hours in Cessnas. We think he is hooked!! Congratulations Tim.
More of the same tomorrow with any luck.
