Great Rex comp. Epic conditions, lots of pilots, no-one in goal!

Video of Bob & Tracey’s recent Morning glory trip. Ted also makes a cameo appearance..

We think Tracey is the first female trike pilot to fly the morning glory, while Ted is certainly the first T- Lite pilot to catch the cloud! Best viewed full screen, HD, turn the volume up!!

Sunday saw a good turn out of pilots launching from the Rex. Bob, Adam, Brett, Paul, Ron, Joe, Will and Matt. Everyone flew North landing at various locations along the way, some as far as Miallo.
A big thank you to Vanessa for being brave enough to drive a few smelly, sweaty hang glider pilots back to launch! She even bought beer and chips!
Here is the video…..

Hi all,
Last meeting resolved to head to Cooktown again!!
We are going on the weekend of the 19th, 20th and 21st July. This is the Cairns show weekend, so Friday is a public holiday.
Troy is coming up from Mackay, and being a public holiday means we can head up Thursday night, and get an extra days flying!!
Here’s some inspiration…

Please let Bob know if you’d like to come, so we organise vehicles, etc.

On Sunday morning Brett, his brother Scott, Wazza, Adam, visiting pilot Curtis and Bob gathered at the Gillies for our annual gardening adventure! For moral support they were joined by Vanessa, Jess, Tracey, Berty, Skeeta and Chelsea!

A successful evening of parachute deployments and repacking! Thanks to Brett and Lou for the excellent venue!

Thanks to Ted for letting me take his T-Lite for a spin recently. Can’t think of too many ways to better spend your time!

4 mile beach on Sunday was the grand opening of Joe’s Hot dog de wheels…
an eager crowd flew in and waited for Wazza to arrive with the goods. Joe quickly had the cooker bubbling and soon satisfied pilots couldn’t eat another mouthful! Coming to a hang gliding LZ near you! (as long as Joe lands not far away!

Paul and Adam enjoy eatin' at Joes...
