“Bubba”, our first FAA Certified Seeing Eye dog taking our first blind pilot for a ride yesterday. Bubba can sniff out a thermal with amazing accuracy. All went well until Bubba saw a squirrel on final. It was a very Ruff landing!

We had a great "Landout BBQ" yesterday for club members and local farmers, whose fields we have landed in over the last season! Some took the opportunity to go for a ride in our twin glider, and throughly enjoyed it. Thanks Genny and Steve for organising it, and everyone who helped out.
