Interested in flying next weekend if there's a tow pilot available - right now I'm the only one on the schedule, I think Noel may also be interested in flying.

Thanks, Terry.
  
And yes, I've got interested Mentees for the 20th-21st. We would love to fly if there is a willing towpilot!

All - 
 
Per the email that went out to SGC Members (quoted below), we won't be able to fly on the 20th/21st. Its a bummer, but we need to ensure that our towpilots are safe when flying our towplane.
  
I look forward to flying with folks in August!

Unfortunately our one and only tow plane this 2024 season (78P) is grounded due to an issue with the elevator trim system.  New parts have been ordered and hopefully it will not be long until it is flyable again.

If you were planning to get a tow in Ephrata in the next couple weeks, please reschedule for the first weekend of August.  I will make it a goal to again have the tow plane airworthy by then.  However, if that is not the case I will send out notification as soon as I have more up-to-date information.

Thanks,

Chris Klix
