Just my own personal thanks to people who helped the scoring along the way, 
Heath for his upload page and server, Nick for the original website setup, Tim 
for scoring scripts and ongoing fault resolution, Ailsa and Matt for helping 
sort out the final chaos the last couple of days. (We were always going to be 
in trouble when a super computer takes 70 min to score one flight).

Thanks Grietje.

The Beaufort club needs a club parachute and offers $200.

Yours Peter Champness

[Aus-soaring] IS-28B CQC's last flying day:

2014-12-21 Thread Brisbane Gliding Adventures
Yesterday was the last day of flying for Caboolture Gliding Club's IS-28B
two seater "Charlie Quebec Charlie".
A total of 28 members and guests took final flights in her on the day!
Quite appropriately, the honour of taking the last flight was awarded by
the CGC Committee to Bert Persson (who purchased her as a wreck from Alice
Springs and completely refurbished her for a second life with Caboolture
Gliding Club) and Lindsay Mitchell (who has been the backbone of the
maintenance team during CQC's life at CGC).
It is very frustrating and disappointing that, as a result of paperwork not
being in place prior to the manufacturer going out of business, there is no
avenue available to extending her 35 year airworthiness life when there are
so many examples of much older gliders that can have their airworthiness
life extended ad infinitum.

Re: [Aus-soaring] IS-28B CQC's last flying day:

2014-12-21 Thread Mike Borgelt
Shameful is what it is. It is well known that metal aircraft have two problems 
when they age:
Fatigue and corrosion, both of which can be inspected for and rectified if 
required.
Now it may not be economical to do the rectification but that can depend on the 
particular circumstances of the owner.
Nothing to do with calendar life at all and an IS28 is hardly obsolete for the 
purposes for which it is flown. As I have noted before, an ASK21 is essentially 
a fibreglass IS 28. Look them up in Martin Simon's book on sailplanes 1965 to 
2000.
What a pity we don't have in this country an organisation dedicated to 
promoting the interests of glider pilots and glider owners.

Mike
