Great weekend of Spring weather with plenty of flying - 16.5 hours in total. Blue skies, no Cu (cumulus), but thermals to 5,000' Saturday and 7,000' Sunday. We welcomed several visitors including James from the Mt Beauty club and his mates as they travel north. Fun weekend including pub dinner last night - should have stayed for the band at 8pm I hear! Good to see Bill fly through Temora enroute Tocumwal and return - no, that's not our new tow plane in the photos!!

Vale Geoffrey John Winton King "Geoff" who left us on 17 August 2026.

Yesterday we celebrated the life of Geoff with family and friends at a service of thanksgiving held at Temora Aero Club. Geoff was central to the longevity of both the Aero Club and Gliding Club.

Many wonderful stories were shared including of course reference to Geoff's signature clubhouse dinner of Apricot Chicken - enjoyed at many gliding competitions and camps. We also learnt a whole lot more at the service about Geoff's commitment to family, friends and the community outside of his extensive aviation participation.

Truly a wonderful man who will be missed but definitely not forgotten.

The Aero Club's Cessna 172 and both Gliding Club Pawnees flew a missing man formation to honour Geoff. A few members also flew in the afternoon and enjoyed good early spring soaring conditions to top off a wonderful day of memories.

We're heading towards the end of winter and there's been some good activity over recent weekends by members - flying, annual maintenance, an instructor refresher course and some nice pub dinners mixed in.

We've also been busy planning and have now locked in a whole lot of activity for the summer soaring season including:
* Temora Soaring Performance Week #1 6-12 December
* Joeyglide - Australian Junior Nationals 13-20 December
* Christmas Camp 26 Dec - 16 Jan 2027
* Temora Soaring Performance Week #2 17-26 Jan 2027

Photos with this post include recent annual maintenance and airworthiness checks in the club/private hangar and from today's flying.

Three days of Easter club activity at Temora with members having the added incentive of set tasks to follow for a bit of fun. GP dhtasks with relaxed starting. Find a friend and head off around the course. Makes for some very fun flying and challenging ourselves in conditions that would likely see only local flying. Lots of overcast patches to navigate and some slow final glides to make it home. Only one outlanding yesterday and the glider was back on the grid today. The supposed minority juniors and ladies made up more than half the launching grid. Thanks to all the members who came out to play and made the weekend fun.

Couple of members enjoyed the wonderful cumulus filled sky today. Even a heavy 30:1 TMG managed 270km. We expect the next few days and into the weekend to be well over 10,000ft so there will be lots of opportunities to fly some long distances. Come out and join us.

Temora Gliding Club is well into hosting the NSW State Gliding Championships with some awesome weather yesterday. See all the results at https://www.soaringspot.com/en_gb/nsw-state-gliding-championships-2025-temora-2025/results
Our volunteers will get scores out as soon as the challenging Seeyou software suite will allow and after we chase up the pilots to submit traces at 8pm!
We have made a particular effort to get some juniors entered this year and 4.5 (one is just out of official age) are here competing very competently, I think all in their first competition. Photos to follow when we get time.
