Happy Days:
Oh NO :shock: ! We haven’t got to put up with you showing all of us how to fly properly again, have we?

On second thoughts, :?:  it could be fun to learn from a “pro.“  See if you can coincide your trip with a glide-in Severri. :D  (I think I’ve spelt your name wrong, sorry)

selleri:
Thanks for the compliment Keith but I think you might have had too much tea last summer!  ;-)

We'll see what happens, limited resources and all that malarkey.

NIMSA Club Open Flying Day
24 May 2015

All very welcome and we have spare height limiters that can be borrowed on the day if needed

Fred:
Dates added. Pretty much the same as next year.

Again, a big gap between May and September. If anybody wants to get something organised, let me know :)

Maybe a bit of aerotowing  :?:  :D

For March, I moved the date a week end further. Also, that has been asked before, so here we go, there will also be a Bring and Buy!
Can be a good start of the season for some, buying some new to you gliders, planes etc, and also for others, to get rid of a few things that have accumulated during the winter break :)

In April, we will have the visit of the French contingent, so book this date! Guaranteed laughs, with possibility of a bit of flying! (between 2 pommeaux!)

We will have lots of visitors from around Europe this year too. Travel packs already arranged and sent, but if some visitors dates clashes, we might get something "organised" at the slope :)

As uausal, any ideas, events etc etc, feel free to let me know if you need any help etc :)

Happy Days:
Bring & Buy on Mt Lienster?

I’m just wondering how that is likely to pan out. In my mind’s eye I’m seeing people loading their cars up with unwanted items, to bring them to a windy (or worse, possibly wet) mountainside to offer them for sale, knowing that they might actually sell precisely nothing and have to take all their “goodies” back with them and unload the car when they get home. :!:

I recon it would be better to have an “exchange of purchased items” at Big L rather than a bring & buy. How about this? :?: ……………

People who have items for sale take a picture of them,…..(the items for sale I mean, not a picture of themselves! :shock: ) (I though I’d just explain that for the benefit of any foreigners who might intend to come along :roll: ) and post a description here on the forum. What I mean is, the potential seller takes a single picture of all, or a lot of the items he intends to sell. This will save taking (and posting) lots of individual pictures of the items for sale.
People who want to know more about a single item can ask for further info on line and if the seller wants to, they can post individual pictures of those items the potential buyer has expressed interest in.

Then,…………..if buyer and seller agree a price, the rest is obvious. If buyer and seller don’t agree a price, or the buyer wants to see the item in the flesh, the seller takes the item to the glide in with a fair knowledge that he might get a sale on the day.

.
This way sellers will only have to load the actual items that they have a reasonable chance of selling. This will leave more room for models that they intend to fly. :D

Anyone got any (civilized ) comments?

Little Keith
