Monday 7th. All nineteen aerotows were performed by the Super Cub, prior to its visit to Bagby for its 150-hoiurs check in readiness for its duties at the YGC Northerns next week and the Pocklington two-seater competition the week after.
The longest club two-seater flight was by J. Norman and M. Bolton in the DG1000. The longest, and only, flight in a club single-seater was timed at thirty five minutes and performed by Peter Guest in an Astir, after a check flight with John Taylor in a K21.
The DG1000t, flown solo by Bill Payton, claims the longest single-seater flight, with three hours eighteen minutes.
Tuesday 8th. Rain!
This blog describes a snippet of life at the Yorkshire Gliding Club. Why not take a flight and try it yourself, or we can teach you to fly as a full club member.
