Wes and his wife, along with Doug and a crew from PA came to Summersville today. The glider was tail heavy is why it wouldn't fly. We balanced it and then it was way to heavy for the .049. It wasn't a black widow. But his wife said I had it in the air longer than Wes had it up. We had to use all the lead weights we could find plus about 60 cents in pennies and three rocks (see photo).

Doug did put him on the trainer cord for his Kadet Sr. After he took off he handed me the box and told me to teach him. I had gone over what the sticks did before we took off. I told him he had it and I didn't take it back until he told me he was too nervous to fly anymore which was about 5 minutes. He did Right Turns and Left and did real well.

It was a good day at the field even though the weather wasn't the best.
