I am definitely on for the Tuesday:ok: . I am still uncertain about the aeroplane being available as we are now waiting on the paperwork coming back from the CAA in time for the airtest:( . I probably won't know until the Monday.

pprune gliding experience days
 
All set for Tuesday

rotorboater 17th May 2006 15:26

All set for Monday still, driving in though - got the bill for my engine :eek: but not fitted yet.

Juliet Papa 17th May 2006 17:23

Still on for the 23rd! Anyone wanting a lift from the South West please let me know (Bridgwater/Glastonbury area - will probably go via A303)

Cheers,

JP :ok:

CDH 17th May 2006 19:19

Still up for Tuesday (if the weather is playing)
I'd much prefer to fly down than drive :ok:

AerBabe 19th May 2006 07:39

Oh pooh. I'm really really sorry, but I'll have to duck out. With only about three weeks until I move away from North Weald, I have to go looking for somewhere to live. AerBloke only gets Mondays off, so I'm left with no choice but to cancel on you.

Thank you so much for setting this all up and I hope everyone has a great day. If you do it again I'd still love to come along.

Sad Bast... - thanks again for the offer of the life, err, lift. Hopefully catch up with you another time soon?

Just come back to PPRune and seen this thread. Have toyed with the idea of getting gliding experience for a while. Can you take a late joiner? I live locally and could do either [or both ] days. I am in a fit of optimism and assuming that the weather is not going be as **** awful as currently.

POSTPONEMENT
 
Ladies and Gents,
As most of you will be able to see from various weather forcasting websites,as well as the good old Met Office, to put it bluntly, the forecast for Monday and Tuesday is utter C:mad:p!
Having consulted widely with my club members as well as others who intended to come, I think that it is prudent to postpone the event planned for Monday and Tuesday. I know many of you will have made various arrangements to travel but the bottom line is if it ain't flyable - its ain't flyable. Additionally, we of the gliding fraternity, would far prefer you to experience gliding at its best, rather than spend a day damp and soggy on a grass airfield with a cloudbase of a few hundred feet, hoping to find a quick break between the showers for a quick and abridged circuit.
This is not a cancellation, this is a postponement, and I will endevour to publish new dates as early as I can in the early part of next week.
Nimbus
It would be useful if you could acknowledge this message so that myslef and BRL can account for all of those who said you were coming, have got the message.

Read & digested. What bad luck to have this weather now!

Still, maybe Ill be able to fly in once more when you re-schedule!

Saab Dastard 19th May 2006 22:20

Have the message, thanks. :{

Please don't make it w/c 29 May, as I'm away!

So who cracked the mirror / trod on the cat / opened the brolly indoors, eh?

Message received and understood. At least I should have the aeroplane back before the next date.

tmmorris 20th May 2006 08:27

Message received; I did wonder when I saw the forecast!

Tim

CDH 20th May 2006 09:27

Good call Nimbus.
Lets hope we have better luck for the next one

Papa Charlie 20th May 2006 11:41

Received OK. Sensible decision! Fingers crossed for the next time.

rotorboater 20th May 2006 16:45

Bad luck, let me know the next date & hopefully I can make it.

AerBabe 20th May 2006 18:30

Oh good! :ok:

If you postpone it long enough, I'll be in my new job and might be able to come after all. :)
