Great conditions again!!

Laurel and Tim flew up in the Mooney for some flying today. Laurel has been training with Eddie in the Maule to be a tug pilot while Tim is still out soaring in XOH with cloud base at slightly over 10,000 feet.

Rhonda from Melbourne was absolutely thrilled after her glider flight with Eddie. Unbeknown to her husband (happily playing golf) Rhonda hit the skies.

Matt soars high!

Congratulations to Matt who qualified for his "C" certificate today. Matt climbed to cloud base of 9,600'.

Power pilot Paul enjoyed his birthday pressy of a scenic flight with Ingo. Now for lessons!! Great to see Tony and John who flew up in the Saratoga with Michael, Pete and Tim. Both Michael and young Tim had flights with Ingo. Tim said it was "awesome". Yes another glider pilot in the making. Good to see Chris who is preparing his glider for the season. Conditions were fanatastic for soaring.

Maugan & Ingo go gliding!

On holidays with her family in Cobram Maugan had her first glider flight today. Adding to Maugan's excitement was having Ingo Renner, 4 times world champion as pilot. Matt who went solo only last weekend completed a 2 hour flight in XOH. Gliding is sure addictive - Matt will be back tomorrow plus Maugan's younger sister has been promised her turn in the Christmas holidays!

It's a solo performance!

Congratulations to Matt who went solo yesterday. Terrific effort!! Congratulations also to Terry who flew in from Shepparton today in the Sonneray with the news that the lovely Barb has finally made an honest man of him !

LO-150 Syndicate members Lothar, Neil and Otto had the DG absolutely gleaming. Lothar and Neil enjoyed their first flights of the season.

Pete had a good time in the Junior while Ingo has just landed after heading off early this afternoon. It was great to see Laurel and Tim, David and family and Mike over the weekend also.

Glenis and Rod also flew in for a cuppa. Rod hopes to return in the near future to refresh his gliding skills. Rod spent a bit of time at Sportavia quite a few years ago.

Matt back into gliding

After beginning gliding lessons with Eddie ten years ago at Sportavia Matt flew up today to finish what he started all those years ago. Pete (on a fitness campaign) helped out with running the wing.
