Write down the day(s) you can fly, leaving your name, number and whether or not you are able to drive (i.e. have a car to take people).
We will try to have the airfield set up as soon as possible after you arrive so that you can get airborne right away!
Make sure you have warm clothing (preferably wind and rain proof), a pair of sunglasses, decent sturdy footware (also trainers for flying) and a cheque book and cash to pay for your flying and food/drink, not forgetting the £3 for the driver!
We will be leaving Leeds at 0800 on both Saturday and Sunday, returning to Leeds early evening.
Please understand that there are going to be a lot of new members wanting to fly for the first few trips and due to limited spaces, we will have to operate a first come first serve system. If you are unable to get a place on this weekend's trip, then you will have priority for the following weeks trip! However, because we fly every weekend, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to go flying.
Note to experienced members: We would like to get the airfield set up by 0830, so you lot will be setting off at 0730 to set the airfield up with Baldrick; he's heading up Friday and staying at the club.
Hi guys, Saturday and/or Sunday for me please (if available places permit). Also, please write down Ivan as well. He has just signed up today for the LUUGC and wants to come flying on the weekend as well.

Really interested in flying this sunday if possible. My name is Tristan Hawkins and I signed up today at the presentation. My contact number is 07816282505. I dont have a car though sorry!!
Stuart Malcolm 07817 861119 Both Days - (Old Git Going Early) I am able to drive (Not licensed and no car but as it asks me to state above I am able to drive!)
Loving the fact Sunglasses are now part of the essentail items to take! Could do with clearing some of the junk out the forum as well? And Will since when has a Skoda got fast enough to warrant needing brakes? :p
Hope all the new members to LUUGS and gliding very much enjoys the experience, remember to stick at it, and the rewards are more than the money you put in!
To Tom, Matt and Mark, hope you get lots of newbies to keep the club going after the success of the summer, and hope to see you soon!

Remember to bring money to pay for the flying (cheques are easiest), £3 for the drivers, log books and training records (if you have them already)! Also bring enough money for food and drink unless you plan on bringing your own (food isn't expensive at the club).
Make sure you have warm clothing too because the airfield is quite exposed and the wind is ruddy cold at times!
Apologies to Anwar, Daniela Pfeffer and Imogen Stoodley for the limited spaces; we try to keep a good mix of experienced members to new members though to ensure the ground operations run as smoothly as possible, enabling maximum flight numbers. There will be plenty more chance to fly in the near future though and you will have priority on the next weekend's trip.
