Well, it looks bad and there is no time to wait. We have been boxing gliders all day and I flew the Yellow Gorilla to a more secure location at my home on FD25. We will batten down the hatches and hope for the best, but this ole girl looks bad.
Hope all the other glider clubs have the hangars available to protect their assets. hope all of you fare well in the monster. Bob , Vero Beach


Irma getting closer and we are as prepared as we can be. Does anyone know what the other clubs or commercial operations in Florida have done to prepare for this beast. Miami Gliders, Labelle, Tampa, Seminole, and North Florida.


I received a FB message from Rich @ Seminole-Lakes. They have a Cat 4 hanger and all their aircraft and gliders/trailers have been put in it. Rich also said they even took down the flag pole. Not sure about the private gliders and where/or if they went anywhere.

Best. Tom #711.
