Sunday 3rd March


Most members were dressed more for a trans-antartic trek than for gliding but we managed to get all the gliders up to the N/W corner without frostbite, Mark & Roly did a met flight to report a 600ft cloud base, so back to the clubhouse for an early lunch.
After lunch and after a lot fumbling and heated debate we at last started flying, there was a hint of wave but apart from some extended flights nobody managed to contact it.
JB & Rowan continued Rowan's training in prep for his instructer rating in the K13, there were several BI flights flown by Roly & Mike S, also there was a good showing from Exeter Uni, everybody flew, last glider landed about 5.30pm.
 
Normally at this time of the year we eagerly await the return of the swallows but it has been reported, but not confirmed that penguins were seen in the N/W corner!  JS.
