Today's flying started late for me but it was slightly windy but nothing to much to worry about. When I arrived there where 3 cars, 2 members and a new potential Club member Greg who has moved his family down from QLD. With some chit chat to Greg about the Club and some information given a Father and son (Charlie) turned up looking at joining up bringing along his Christmas present being a Cessna.
With the help of John, Charlie had some air time with his Cessna via the buddy system with some yank and bank flying and John taking control a number of times when things got out of hand for him and even some unintended inverted flying.
Greg had brought down his Bi plane to have a fly and this plane looked sweet in the air as well on the ground.
I got my trusty Radian glider out for some fun and even got the Bonsai out for a zip around but then the wind picked up.
Happy New Year to everyone and their families and hope to see you down the field next year....

Gravity sucks, or should I say, is the downfall of all things flying. It's the way it's controlled that makes the end memorable or not.
