2018 ISR events
Flamingo Flier:
Hey Fred,
Where are all the photos………………………..
Saturday was one of the best all round glider events it has ever been my pleasure to attend and if you had as much fun today you can certainly take a bow. Yes there have been days when I have flown longer – and there have been days when I was warmer.
But Saturday had it all – the chance to fly, to watch really good pilots fly, to watch really good models fly (particularly the Cortina!) was great and the chance to socialise over a splendid lunch with so many friendly souls was a joy.
And it all happened just because you organised it!
Chapeau!
Thanks also to the French contingent who made us feel part of an international community rather than a few lonely souls standing on a hillside - it was great! Your presence (and your most excellent catering!) made the event. It was a pleasure to meet you all.

Fred:
Hey Jim,
Working on it! :) Knackered after the week!
And many thanks for your kind comments, but ultimately, this is a group effort :) And I do agree, it is nice to see the gliding community in Ireland to think this way, and that also show up in our meetings by constantly having great numbers of pilots showing up, even when the weather is not good, just for a bit of craic! :) :)
I just have a few photos (and from the Cortina!! :) ), I'll make up a page on the website as soon as my liver recover! :)
antonio:
Ah well. Drove there yesterday, but only paragliders on sight. Which is probably the reason you guys left :'(
Fred:
Hey Antonio,
Nope, we were there... up until 14.15 for me and most of the guys (long week!)
Paragliders were not annoying yesterday, they took off below us, then flew on the far right :)
