Thank you to Connor for these pictures of the local Cub Scout group who visited GHSA today from 1130-1230! The group included 18 youth (Ranging in age from kindergarten through 5th grade) and their chaperones. All were amazed as they observed glider flights with takeoff/ landing narration, took a guided group tour of the Aviation Center, met pilots, and enjoyed a photo op with a glider.
What another fun day at the gliderport!
Please, welcome Edwin Old in our team. Ed has 800 hrs. tailwheel time and over 190 tows in his logbook already flying for TSA in Midlothian South of Dallas. Recently he moved to Houston and found us. Thanks Manolo (Chief Tow Pilot) for doing the extensive GHSA checkout and onboarding with him.
Pablo (Center) had the pleasure to do her maiden flight…..! Abhi and Matthew helped on the ground.
Thanks a lot Ferenc on the tractor and Dan on the Zero Turn to get the field in shape….Susan Gibbs finished he remaining Zero Turn areas a day later. What a team…!
Thanks Michael for start rolling the field and Ferenc, Pablo for cleaning the mud loaded roller afterwards. Much more work is needed….We also found the missing C-Clamp, that fell off. Great!
Enjoying friends and celebrating our 2023 accomplishments.
We just dress up and do it! Great team today with 28 flights……

Manolo and Michael who found out first… :)
We managed to beat the rain securing all airplanes in the hangar except Trevor our tow pilot, who took a bath (Kurt, Victor, Griffin, Trevor, Bassam, Philippe and Ananya). Great job Team!
We went from no rain with a shower to the West of the field to a heavy deluge 10 min later when the cold front moved in from the Northwest shown on the right on the way home on Hwy 59.
