Monday 4th January 2010 Practice day
Official briefing held in our distinctive igloo hangar come workshop; commenced just after 9am. This is our opportunity to pass on important information to the pilots and crews. Where and how to marshal, and what are the landing options. The organizing committee appears to have past the initial shake down with only a printer problem delaying the handing out of task briefing sheets. After all practice day is for the organization, launch operations and pilots. Glider gridding, launching and tug operations all worked well with the 6 tugs doing the job in about 90 minutes.
