Just to add our twopence to Freds pictures. A good bunch of people from all over the country showed up. 4 traveled from Cork with electric gliders and along with Fred took to the air in a quiet buoyant conditions. Again thanks to LMFC for hosting a great event.

Last few.

The club had a table full of bits and pieces with a honesty box for whatever you took. I believe they raise a bit more than 1000€ on the day for a worthy cause! Nice one guys, and a good idea!

A bunch of us did the trip to this year's Laois Fun Fly :)
A good attendance, great site, but we were all freezing on the day!!

Anyway, main thing was that we were outside amongst like minded people and friends :)

Here are a few photos

Hi all, first of all, I must apologise Alan for not responding to your question on our glider gathering on 15th June. Between one thing and another, domestically and otherwise, I wasn’t keeping up with the glider Ireland website.
On the 15th, the weather was very wet in the morning and gliding finally got going around 1pm. 10 fliers took part and we had a most enjoyable afternoon flying on the NW slope. Can’t remember for sure if I have any photos, but if I do, I’ll post them here.

Today we had our 2nd gathering. Just 7 fliers attended. Wind was from the NE, but unfortunately we got almost no flying done as we were in low cloud conditions all day long. That doesn’t mean we didn’t have a great time though!! Lots of chat and banter. Nice food and a BBQ which was organised by Wally Fogarty.

Regards, Gerry Buckley

Another event I could not miss this year, with the SRFC Scale day.
Great turn out, great people and a fantastic weather!

Nice selection of models during the day, and I think everybody had fun! Burgers, chips, coffee and more provided throughout the day by the club  8) 8)

Anyway, you better be there for the next one or you'll miss a great day out! Here are a few photos of the day. Enjoy!
