Hello Patch,
Great to see vintage gliders put to good use rather than sit around in hangars and trailers like so many other good gliders. Congratulations to your initiative.

My Shortwing Kookaburra is now at Swan Hill GC, on loan to support them. Gary Crowleys is going to Millicent on the same deal. Other people have been in contact with me in the hope of finding a spare two seater. I am trying my hardest to help them. As I see it we have to pull together on this one.

This will also impact the "price" of the gliders. Other Clubs in our region with Blaniks are, a) Alice Springs. b) Top End Gliding Club. c) Barossa Valley Gliding Club. d) The yet to be formally formed Coober Pedy Gliding Club, who purchased the Blanik from Pt Augusta. e) and I think Millicent GC have one. I am looking forward to see the outcome of your email. With best wishes, John Hudson. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kym Z Sent: Monday, 16 August 2010 9:25 AM To: Discussion of issues relating to Soaring in Australia. Subject: [Aus-soaring] Grounded Blanik L13's Hi all, As you'd all know, Blaniks (unless they have the Llewelyn mod, and unless they comply with the limited -but badly worded criteria from the factory on the AD) are currently grounded... Are we the only club still using a Blanik as our only trainer? It's pretty hard to operate without a trainer... what are other clubs doing about the situation? Thanks, Kym. _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list [email protected] To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring No virus found in this incoming message.
