Saturday' flying

Mon, 15/09/2008 - 15:28 — Stuie Coad

I spent Saturday morning in a trike, flying out of Rutherford to Hexham for touch and goes and then back to Rutherford into a wind that reduced our groundspeed to negative at times, fantastic fun! It was thermic from 10:00, if you could have got off the ground safely, it would've been a great day for hang gliding.

NHGC Denman Week-End

Cancel that date with Jen, tell Kylie you’re washing your hair and give Angelina the stiff arm because its TOWTIME at Denman on September 20/21 – (a traditionally good weekend and favoured in the long range forecasts as “excellent”).

Pete & Chris are in a hospitable mood and the Evils should be nesting. If that’s not enough, Georgia is having her 10th (Dave & Megan please note) and Denman school is celebrating their 125th with a big fete. There’s more chance of a frost than light winds at this time of year but hey, it’s a lucky place and we are optimists if nothing else.

New Forums

Mon, 15/09/2008 - 16:31 — splint

Welcome to the new discussion forums for the Newcastle Hang Gliding Club. There is not much here but since the old forum is still in place I decided to keep it simple and add areas as they were requested.

As you can see there are only 2 areas now;
Flying: General Discussion
Club: Notice Board

Pretty self explanatory so post some content and let's see how we go.
