The decision was made not to pull the engine out this morning. The word is the weather will deteriorate over the next 2 days with today being the best. So we've decided to dig the donk out when the weather is less appealing.
Uli Schwenk will hopefully be bringing the replacement hardware we need on Wednesday to make the wanger work safe enough so it doesn't try to jump out the back of the aircraft.
After some mucking about with electrical issues, mounts and wiring we managed to get the glider to a launch position. Seems that's the way it is at the moment, just put your glider close-ish to the tugs, point it in the general direct and get in!
Finally he's off so I can get some tucker into me and a few litres of fluid. ( no!, not beer!), ( not yet, anyway)
More later and hopefully with some worthy pics.
Mark
