2009 Flying Season Underway @ GGC


Saturday turned out to be a picture perfect day to start the 2009 flying season at GGC.


The grins on the faces of Remi and Lee say it all! The temperature topped out at 15C and 2-3 kt. thermals were being generated by the campground forest. Doug got into the spirit with his customary shorts and t-shirt.


Although the runways were clear, there was still a significant amount of snow in the forest and campground. 24 spring checkout flights were flown by the end of the day.
