Today was mostly a work day. Mike Paoli worked on his Libelle some. Alex worked some on his on his Nimbus, then started clearing tumble weeds and trash from the street side of the clubhouse. Richard Walker worked on the main gate.
Mario Pauda took the only two glider flights in the Club's 1-26. Mike Paoli was going to take the 1-26 up, but when the towpilot took too much time at Big Bird, Mike decided to put the 1-26 away and work on his glider.
