Hi Gary - most definitely not a 'breakaway group. It was simply a matter of timing - Robert didnt' know about my email and vice versa. Having two venues as alternatives can only be a healthy thing!

Age has nothing whatsoever to do with it. Gary Are you intending to fly the SZD 55 at DDSC over Easter? Looks like there is already a Goondiwindi "breakaway group" forming. During a comp many years ago 8 pilots landed out at Donald A/F in Victoria. They decided that they would all get aerotow retrieves. 4 pilots elected to launch off 08. The other 4 decided on 36! What is truly amazing is that nobody decided to use 09/27. I note that nobody from any of the 3 clubs at Bacchus Mash, took up Tim Shirley's (surely tongue in cheek?), recent query on this forum as to why there should be 3 individual clubs (with a common purpose?), operating from this airfield. ----- Original Message ----- >From: Paul Bart >To: Discussion of issues relating to Soaring in Australia. >Sent: Thursday, March 17, 2011 11:46 PM >Subject: Re: [Aus-soaring] State of mind > >Hi Gary > >Maybe, one thing is for sure, older we get the more likely that scenario is:) > > >Cheers > >Paul > > > >On 17 March 2011 22:07, <gstev...@bigpond.com> wrote: > >Hi Paul, >>Perhaps in the bigger picture, anger sometimes has its place? >> >>However re gliding, and this forum, I prefer "passion", and as our Sports >>Psychologists tell us it is essential to have some "arousal" in most things >>we >>do.
