A fantastic lecture at the club last night on the use of parachutes. A huge thank you to 'Mac' McDermott from @Burn_Gliding for a hugely informative and enjoyable presentation.

A reminder that the Pizza and Parachutes night is this Friday (18 Oct).

Pizza will be available from 7pm. Once everyone has tucked in, we will start the talk.

It's getting to that soggy time of year :( and the grass areas are now waterlogged, particularly near the peri track and towards the end or runway 23 hard and beyond.

PLEASE STAY OFF THE GRASS TO THE WEST OF RUNWAY 17/35.

Looks flyable tomorrow but gusty. Worth a check first thing
