Flew the Oly had an hour, Leigh Bunting is down here for the weekend, he only
jagged a circuit, perhaps today will be better for him.

Hi All,
Today we completed the restoration of the ASK 6 E, VH-GEA, with its post
restoration flight at Bacchus Marsh. It has been 16 years since its unfortunate
landing at Muralen.
Many Many thanks to all the people who have helped return this beautiful
glider to service. Geoff Hearn for helping me find it. Mal Bennett for taking
on the job of fixing the wing. The Australian Gliding Museum for the covering.
Pete Raphael for the painting. Alan Patching for the weighing and to Dennis
Hipperson who now owns it, for all the new trailer fittings and a thousand
other jobs.
Without you all this just wouldn't have happened so soon.
Thankyou all.
What a nice xmas present. And yes.....it flies beautifully.
Cheers
Patch
