Thursday 4th August

The sun quickly burnt off the low cloud this morning, but the northwesterly wind picked up at the same time. It was soarable from the first launch, with the course members making up for lost time earlier in the week.  It became clear that the conditions were going to be good, but still tricky in the gusty wind.

For Justin Wills cross-country coaching in the DG505, Tom Sides was the lucky recipient today with a large area of Devon explored.
The Juniors and a large number of private owners explored the local area apart from a rather soggy time just before lunchtime that caused a few relights.

Mark Layton brought the Vitesse up to North Hill to meet the Cirrus. In the evening, a second group from 2nd Amersham Common  Scouts who are on Summer camp in Devon enjoyed a great evening of trial flights. -J&P
