Hi Chris,
The forecast for this week end is a southerly 20 km/h wind.
Unfortunately, I will not go to the glide in for the first time since I'm in Ireland !
I have a new girl in my life !! :)
But I hope that Ralph and/or Kevin will send us pictures of the event !
I will be at the National in May. Hope to see some of you guys there ! And have a pint !

Hi Fred

Hope the lady is being trained about aeromodelling priorities from the very beginning!

We had an absolutely fantastic day at Kinsale on Sunday - wind was a steady average 11.6 knots, maximum 13 knots SW, and the lift the smoothest and deepest I have ever experienced (not that I have much of that, but still!).  I have never flown for so long on any one day, and on top of it, I went home with nothing broken!  That's completely unheard of for me!

Thanks to all the guys who organised the event and provided help!

I'll write up a blog on the day, and ask Joe to post in on the ISR site.
