Hi all,
A most enjoyable day’s gliding on Tountinna on Saturday. Approximately 15 flyers took part and we had models in the air almost all day. A good breeze meant there was always plenty of lift, though landing was sometimes ‘challenging ‘ to say the least! Occasional showers failed to dampen our spirits and there was plenty of friendly chat and banter in between flights. Thanks to everyone who took part, especially Andreas, Ralph, Pete and Chris who travelled long distances to be with us. Thanks also to MACI who funded the event.
Don’t forget, Summer Gliding continues every Wednesday evening on Tountinna for the summer months and anyone in the area is welcome to come and join us.
Thanks to Denis for these photos, hopefully I’ll get some more in the next few days.......

Hi is anyone reading this post? I have made a boo boo. The Shannon MFC control line flyin is on the weekend of the 21/22. Can we please move this event back to its original date 28/29 Sept ?
Replies here please.
Cheers
Ralph

I think you might mean 28/29 September, Ralph
-
The same weekend as the ISR end of season glide in?
-
Yes Keith, the very same. My mixup sorry
-
Just to confirm. The fly-in is on the 28/29 of September?
-
Yes Alan, it is. See you there?
R
-
Yep. See you there.

Hi Everyone,
Regrettably I can't make it to Mt Leinster this September. I hope the weather behaves and you all get some good flying and that almost every model goes home intact - (it would be asking too much for good weather and no damaged models).
On another matter I presume most of you got the invitation from the MACI Chairman to a meeting shortly. This has been re-scheduled (for which I offer my thanks to the Chairman) in order to avoid a clash with our event at Mt Leinster so that no-one has to chose between flying and attending the meeting. Can I encourage as many as possible to attend? Particularly as to my great embarrassment, having requested the change of date, I am unable to attend........
Pretty please??
