Gliding in Progress at Drury

Cruising north from the Waikato region another detour from State Highway 1 to the gliding strip at Drury was made without an expectation of seeing anything due to it being a weekday.  However on arrival this changed to a a time spent watching 5 glider launches undertaken by winch, the tow plane having been used in the morning.   The activity was in conjunction with Baradene College, a Catholic Girls School in Auckland, with the girls in this group being part of a science project.
