Camping booked for Paul James and myself. Bringing the new tug for its first proper towing session and a few gliders.

Look forward to it Pat. Don’t take it too easy as it will need a fuel tanker on site to keep it filled up :-)

Many thanks to all involved in organising and running the weekends Aerotow event at Buckminster!

I had a fantastic day on Saturday, with some great flights and only losing two tow loops.

Cheers

Thanks for the pictures and videos.
Phil, in your pictures it does not look like there were many attendees but on Sat we had 18 pilots registered and on Sunday, 25 pilots.
Thanks to everyone who made the meeting a success. Roll on the next one at Buckminster on 3/4 September.
