It's spring and SOSA is soaring




Starting the year off the right way, Dave Springford reports that he and other hardy members braved the chilly but sunny skies yesterday and opened the hangar doors. Out came the Junior and the L23 Blanik heading straight to the flight line. Marc Thomson soared for 2.5 hours in the Junior reporting 5kts to 5,000 ft and came down without totally freezing his buns off. OK we'll have to get our new Discus 1W out of storage! Others who flew were Roy Auwaeter and Pat O'Donnell.
