Subject: Re: [Aus-soaring] Re: FUN Hi All, We celebrate 70 continuous years of gliding at Waikerie on Saturday, 19th May 2007. This surely is a great (among the best) milestone in Australian Gliding. We will see some "members" return - some who learnt to fly in the "Primary" glider, and other's who learnt more latterly to fly in the Twin Astirs - all able to mix and reminise. Unfortunately - due to age or illness, there are many who wont be there to share in the celebration - Joch Barratt, Ken Reibe, Maurie Bradney - to name just a few. There will be lots there who can celebrate "lots of gliding years" - Ron Brock, Laurie English, Max Pennyfield and Geoff Horword (OAM) - to name a few. We'll hear Martin Simons talk about the "improvements" in glider design throught successive models of all types (gets Martin's books if you need any enlightenment). 2007 marks the 70th anniversary of WGC. 2012 (just 5 short years away) mark's the 75th Anniversary. We want to make this a big celebration of gliding in Australia/ Look out for you invitation. The "Pelican" has been cleaned and polished for the occasion. She looks like she could beat the "best". We look forward to a great day (or two). John Hudson President, WGC. The material contained in this email may be confidential, privileged or copyrighted.
