The weather has turned summer-like. We seem to get some rain every day. In spite of this we had a good weekend of practice and training.
The highlights were the first test flight of the 2-33, Matt's Blanik solo, and Jason and Rich's refamiliarization flights in 3J.
Andy reports that the 2-33 flies well, and he attributes the improved roll rate and low stall speed to the new aileron seals. The glider still needs some minor work and has not yet been returned to service.
As a new Blanik pilot, Matt automatically becomes a member of the Weekday Slackers, effective as soon as someone teaches him the secret handshake.
We don't always recognize the effort it takes Bob and Doug to travel to Post Mills to tow. Thanks, guys.
Franconia is next!
