We spent yesterday doing a couple of jobs on the glider. First we replaced the perished elastic on the doors with new springs. We then removed the tape from the tail skid, intending to replace it, and the skid fell off!! Off to the hardware store to buy glue. It turned out that the glue we bought was 3 years old and off.... Luckily Allan had also bought glue, so we were able to reattach the skid.
The forecast proved to be accurate with a 3 hour window that was soarable in the afternoon. Unfortunately the runway was too soggy to use in any case.
Mike's glider JT arrived yesterday and is ready to go.
Captain Charlie and Mike are heading for Nitra on a bus and should arrive here later today along with the rain.
Hi guys, great to follow your Blog, bugger about the weather though. Any chance of you taking some pictures?? Also noticed no mention of Allan drenching you with the drinks tray...ROSS
