Flying Friday Oct 26

Post by Andy M » Sat Oct 20, 2018 2:31 pm

Update, it is still looking OK but a bit cool and the grass will likely be quite wet, so plan to get there 10:30 ish. I'll bring the DLG as might need the exercise to keep warm!

It looks windy all week until Thurs/Fri. I can't make it Thurs so if mother nature co-operates I plan to be at the field on Friday (26th).

Westover Sunday Oct 14 prior to meeting

Post by Andy M » Fri Oct 12, 2018 3:43 pm

At the moment the forecast looks OK for a visit to the slope before Sunday's meeting. So if it stays OK plan to be there about noon for 45 mins or so.
