It's been raining - 60ml !!

Earlier in the week Michael (above) enjoyed a trial instructional flight with Eddie over to Yarrawonga and back

Yeah well - there's always something to do. Jake (above) gives the Maule a clean. Jake was going to fly to Baccus Marsh to the V.S.A. meeting with Eddie on Saturday however, the rain put a stop to their plans

Miranus & Richard (above) had an extended stay in Toc as the poor weather conditions delayed their departure to Mangalore

We have enjoyed approximately 60ml of rain over the past few days. While not great for flying the grass is definitely growing and seeds planted in the vege garden only a few days ago have now sprouted!!
