See you soon

Slope Soaring / End of August meeting

Anyone up for Mount L at the end of the month, I have not heard back from Fred so I presume Round wood will not happen.

Aug 29 and 30

Hi I would like to thank everyone who travelled to our event, without you the event does not happen. I would also like to thank CMAC for hosting the funfly that allows us the opportunity to aerotow.
Most importantly I would like to thank Dave and Sonia Duff for cutting the grass, cleaning the kitchen area and toilets in advance of our arrival. I want to thank everyone for helping with the cleanup Sunday evening. Most of all thank fred for all the towing he did over the weekend.

Hope to see you all in Aug for maybe a meeting in Roundwood (Fred get the finger out) or Mount L if Fred did not listen.

Hi Lads,

apologies for the late notice, I cannot find digs for the weekend and wont drive up and down in the one day.

I think it will have to be July in Cork before we meet again.

Apologies again to all.

Mount Leinster June bank holiday weekend

I was on  to Fred re towing in Roundwood and it looks like we have to give it a miss this time. Anyone interested in joining Fred and me for some flying at Mount Leinster that weekend instead?

Hope to see some of you there

Apologies for my delay in replying, first I would like to thank Dave Duff from the CMAC and his wife for the work done to prepare the site for the weekend making all the facilities clean for the weekend.
Secondly I would like to thank CMAC for once again hosting us for the weekend.
I would like to thank Fred for all the towing all weekend and also for all the pilots who participated over the weekend. Without them the event would not happen, Fred, Richard, Brendan, Joe and John
Finally my towplane got to see some action on the Monday and as Joe said Brendan and Joe had a good bunch of flights.

Once again looking forward to seeing everyone again.
