An absolutely fabulous day today at the 2018Octoberfest hosted by Wings of Wellington. 43 registered Fliers, start with calm winds and low temps but warmed up considerably and for the most part very light variable winds. Exception was a brief 5 minute period of intense cyclonic wind over the pits, "Willy-willy" as the Aussie's call them. Swirled everything movable into the air including a couple of large sets of Richard Giles model plans which made it to about 80 ft. before settling down undamaged. Everyone had an enjoyable time and enjoyed the Octoberfest Sausages and burgers.
