maleny gliding q's

[jake]

hey guys,

just a couple of q's about the gliding club up in maleny...

is there someone i can contact re membership etc?
and
how do you guys tell when it's windy up there!!! i've been up to brandenberg rd a couple of times when it's blowing the right way down on the coast but every time i get up there it's dead, and i mean d.e.d dead. just doesn't make sense!

ta!

Yeah there is - the phone no. for the president it is on the sign on the gate at Bald Knob - and I don't have it handy right now!

If you've been up recently in these SE winds, you probably couldn't fly at Bradenburg rd. It is for notherly winds. www.seabreeze.com.au/graphs/qld1.asp seems to be a reasonably good indicator.

PM sent with club phone no.

They're getting tight on non-members not being allowed to fly at Bald Knob, so joining up is a good idea. But it runs from July to June, and there's no pro-rata part-year rate, so you might want to wait till July to join to get a full year.

Sometimes the club membership has been closed off - I don't know the current situation.

Hi Jake,

the President's name is Greg Roper. His number is 5446 0055 and he'll be glad to hear from you!

Go Great!

Ken.
