It was time for some much needed admin whilst we continue to work with RAF Shawbury to update the safety case to ensure that we can continue to fly whilst the works on the airfield are in progress.

A non-flying day in the programme on Sunday, the perfect opportunity to get in some time on the Sim.

Storm Ashley barrelled though and put paid to any thought of getting on to the airfield. 

Congratulations Jack, on completion of your Bronze badge and we look forward to your next challenge.

In the absence of any flying the aim today was to undertake and complete the annual inspection on tug KE before next weekend.

Rain and low cloud brought an end to any thought of flying at 1230 as the water flowed into the hangar.

A super day to make the most of with over 18 hours of flying time at an average of 46 mins per flight.

A cracking start to the Bank Holiday with nearly 7 hours of flying.  Roll on Monday.

An overcast and blustery day saw club members supporting the annual RAF Shawbury Families Day, a great event and one to which we always look forward.

A busy day and it is fantastic to see the progress that all our MEF gliding scholarship students are making.

Big congrats to Shawbury based MEF gliding scholarship student Charlie. After a check flight, Norm sent him solo.

The threat of rain was always in the air but despite leaden skies, thankfully it held off until 1425 when flying was scrubbed. However, we did achieve 21 launches and over 6hrs 30mins of flying time, a great effort on the day.

Rain until mid-afternoon and then a cross wind out of limits for the tug put paid to the day.
