Thursday 14th April

Low cloud to start with a light south easterly wind and prospect of rain arriving late afternoon. By the time the gliders had been walked up to the end of the field, the cloud had lifted sufficiently to start launching. In general the flights were all quite short, except the first Junior launch with Paul M getting the prize for 33 minutes and Rob R converted to K13.
After lunch,  John B consolidated his solo flight of two weeks ago, and then the southerly crosswind started to pick up significantly although the south ridge didn't seem to work.
The rain looked as though it was arriving just after 16:00, but it was another hour before the big drops appeared with everything safely tucked up in the hangar. - J&P
