Whew...it's going to be a wild day...

Will the wind be too strong to go racing??
18,000 ft winds - 85 knots...notice the large wave predictions...
Otherwise everything else is OK...SW winds, increasing with height, tow planes on standby, sun coming out after lunch...we'll see.



A photo of Roy's new glider turned up in my inbox...a real high tech and special glider.

A nice white colour, almost one piece canopy, winglets, high tech wing stand, a high spec vario that has 2 special balls in tubes that go up and down, unique rego (BAL...as in you'll need big ones to fly this glider)...

We are all impressed that Roy has opened his wallet (which was last opened between the wars) and extracted some moth eaten notes to splash out of this prime example of gliding in yesteryear...
