It looks like tomorrow will be slightly too windy to fly, so we're holding a ground handling clinic. Local wind expert, Windy John, will be leading us through the various tricks for controlling the **&^%$$%^&* thing when it's strong.

We'll be dealing with refining standard launch and collapse techniques, how gliders vary and need alternate techniques and practice those techniques, such as use of front and rear risers, french style launch, cross wind lay-out, mushroom launch, back fly, cobra launch and anything else we can make up as we go along.

All pilots and coaches are welcome.
