Title: Cork Glide-in 2023
Post by: rogallo on June 23, 2023, 08:08:40 AM

Hi Everyone,

looking forward to our next meeting on sat 1st and 2nd of July. Feel free to come on the Friday if you want but just drop me a line if you are doing so.

We will have 1 petrol towplane driven by me, a couple of Funcub XLs to tow up to 3M models. Bring your electrics, bungee models, what every you want.

See you next weekend

Ralph

Hi all,

I would like to thank everyone who traveled from near and far to make the annual glidein a great success. I would like to thank CMAC for providing a fantastic venue for us.
I would like to thank the catering crew, Micheal and Maria for all their help. I would also like to thank Brendan Shelly for his patience to get the engine going on the towplane.

Looking forward to seeing everyone soon,

Ralph

Many thanks to Ralph for organizing the event, and of course the CMAC for allowing us to use their flying field! Always a pleasure to get down south, great hospitality, great friends and a nice group of glider misfits!

Here are a couple of photos of the event, enjoy!
