Video of Bob & Tracey’s recent Morning glory trip. Ted also makes a cameo appearance..
We think Tracey is the first female trike pilot to fly the morning glory, while Ted is certainly the first T- Lite pilot to catch the cloud! Best viewed full screen, HD, turn the volume up!!
Hi all,
Last meeting resolved to head to Cooktown again!!
We are going on the weekend of the 19th, 20th and 21st July. This is the Cairns show weekend, so Friday is a public holiday.
Troy is coming up from Mackay, and being a public holiday means we can head up Thursday night, and get an extra days flying!!
Here’s some inspiration…
Please let Bob know if you’d like to come, so we organise vehicles, etc.
On Sunday morning Brett, his brother Scott, Wazza, Adam, visiting pilot Curtis and Bob gathered at the Gillies for our annual gardening adventure! For moral support they were joined by Vanessa, Jess, Tracey, Berty, Skeeta and Chelsea!
A successful evening of parachute deployments and repacking! Thanks to Brett and Lou for the excellent venue!
Thanks to Ted for letting me take his T-Lite for a spin recently. Can’t think of too many ways to better spend your time!
4 mile beach on Sunday was the grand opening of Joe’s Hot dog de wheels…
an eager crowd flew in and waited for Wazza to arrive with the goods. Joe quickly had the cooker bubbling and soon satisfied pilots couldn’t eat another mouthful! Coming to a hang gliding LZ near you! (as long as Joe lands not far away!
Paul and Adam enjoy eatin' at Joes...
Brett, Louise, Adam, Vanessa, Bob and Tracey participated in the Cairns Hang gliding Club Chillagoe weekend;
Spent some time recently scouting for an old/new site around the tablelands. Ian Graham has flown to Petford from this site near Tolga. SE facing site, relatively easy (4WD) access, and a long ridge to work. Adam has designs on a transportable ramp that will make launch easier.
Keep an ear out for flying here on a weekend when the weather comes good!
Adam and Bob also spent some time recently on the club pay-out winch, putting on new rope and nutting out how it works.
