Tokoroa International Airport

This used to be Maurice's favourite spot but on Day 4 of the club class contest 25% of the fleet landed at Tokoroa. Photo shows Piako's Discus about to tow home, also present was GNM, GNV, GKT, GGO, GXP. And if you look at the sky you'd wonder why we landed...










This strip is so good you could run a contest out of this site. However accomodation in the local town might be a bit suspect.
Has anybody had a beer in the public bar of the Timberlands Hotel?? I did once as a dare while at varsity...we did drink quite quickly...

Gliding hours - just updating my logbook. Would appear I've spent 1200hrs in the air, of which half has been somewhere other than Tauranga. Mostly Omarama and Matamata but also 50 hours at Taupo.
40 land outs. 500 hours in GNM.
