Hello,

Just a quick note to say we had a very enjoyable day out at Mt Leinster last sunday. Poxy with the weather too. I met a couple of you before at the MACI glide in on Tounntine this year so it was nice to see you again.
Thank you Joe for the big welcome! Hope the ASH repairs quickly.

Anybody that I have not met, I am David Mc Caffrey..Ex Shannon Club now flying at Carron. Co Tipp. I fly a lot at tounntine, practically live at the foot of it. Lucky me! So any of you ever in the locality make sure you have a model in the car and give either me or Ger Buckley the heads up and we will join you.

cheers
D.

Dave,

Thanks again for changing crystals last thing on Sunday as the wind died - allowed me to get a last flight in!   A very enjoyable days flying - it would be a pity to wait until next year to do it all again so hopefully we can get some more meetings/road trips organised.

Peter

DaveMc:
No Prob Peter, anytime.
Yeah I would love to get you guys down to tounntine before the year is out.
I suppose we could just put out the invite and set a date. Take it from there.

Cheers,
D.

Hi Dave,

Sorry to sound like the ignorant fool that I am  :( but where is Tounntine?
I've searched Google and Google Earth, and they give no results.
None at all :cry:

DaveMc:
Hi Ron,

Tounntine is the name of the slope at Ballina Co. Tipperary. Myself Ger Buckley and a group of the SMFC glider guys fly here regularily. It was also the spot where the MACI Glide in 2008 was held.

Here is a pic



Cheers
