GGC Fleet is Ready!

The GGC fleet is ready to go! (only the Blanik is left to be rigged/inspected)
In spite of a rather bleak forecast, a lot of spring chores were enthusiastically completed by those who came out this past weekend.

Activities included:
Both L33s and the Jantar were rigged, inspected and are ready to fly.
The rudder pedal A/D on the Puchacz was completed and it is also ready to fly.
The cockpit of ASK-13 was cleaned/tidied up.
Runway 31/13 was rolled with our custom made “groundhog crusher”
On-board paperwork was updated (including updated insurance certificates) for each aircraft.
A few more winter storage items were picked up.

After the work, gliders were pulled out and Tim and Greg (with Martin towing) even managed to get a couple of flights in before the end of the day Saturday. By all accounts it was a very productive couple of days. A special thank-you goes out to everyone who helped out this past weekend.

On another note, Mayfly 2007 is just around the corner (May 18th-21st). This fun contest is a great low stress way to see what XC flying and contests are all about. Book your favourite single or multiplace glider and get familiar with the club Colibri data recorders. Let’s hope the sun comes out for next weekend!
