A much better day for almost all...

At last a da worth remembering. Tasked out to Wharepapa Sth then down to Kuratau back to Whakamaru Dam and home. 280kms. Average speed 88kph. Fastest standard class glider did it at 107kph...I have a lot to learn.
Sad story of the day...GYR ground looped on a aero-retrieve...small amount of damage to the glider (it's only plastic afterall) but I suspect large amounts of damage to the pilots self-esteem. Don't give it away Paul!!!!
