What are your plans for this season? Maybe you are working your way towards that magic first solo or that even more magic first cross-country. Or maybe you are planning something epic.
Whatever your goals, I wish you the best of luck and of course the best of weather.
I'm looking forward to seeing some of those awesome pics and vids appearing on the social channels.
Stay safe

Congratulations Kate!
First solo
Did you know?
The women's world gliding championships (WWGC) are being held in Australia (Lake Keepit) in November 2019.
Classes are Club, Standard and 18m. Apart from here in NZ of course this is as close as it gets to us for this type of amazing event.
Who's up for the challenge? Any of our female competition pilots wanting to test their skills against the world's best?
Not to mention Lake Keepit is one of Australia's best and most interesting sites to fly from.
If you are thinking about it the place to start would be by sending an email to Rob Lyon who is the Chairman of the Sailplane Racing Committee, but be quick as time is short.
