There were no accidents involving a stall or spin.
There were 4 reported wing drop incidents, but in all cases the pilot released early to avoid a cartwheel.
Let us at DGS have another safe year of winch launching!
I highly recommend to any pilot that has not had any practice lately on launch failures, to ask an instructor for a refresher; winter could be an excellent time to practice!
A poster from the BGA will be sent to our club and posted in the clubhouse.
Safe flying!
