Welcome back Sigrid

A warm welcome back to Sigrid (above) with Eddie

Lothar (above) has a grin from ear to ear after hangaring his brand new glider safely in the SportAviation Hangar. After inspecting the leather seats Bill said, "Gliders have come along way since my day!"

Rolf (above) gives Terry a hand prior to his flight in Papa Charlie last week

Couldn't resist this early morning picture of our resident roos (above) playing around.

We are hoping that the weather will start to improve tomorrow. We have had over 20ml of rain this weekend!
