Dear All,
I am reasonably certain that most of our airborne contact incidents
occurred in thermalling situations.
The assumption that we should avoid any activities (aerotowing,
turpoints, traversing or thermalling) over built up areas, is a
nonsense. Perhaps ther is a case for improving

Thanks for your input.
The point however, this meeting has been announced
with inadequate notice to intrested parties to plan their attendance, not just
"send a representative". Further, there has been no notice of agenda, and
insufficient time to allow submission of anytopics for
"someone at GFA office"was informed.
As there is a requirement to have a serviceable
