Sunday 8th January

A misty foggy start as predicted and unsurprisingly members were few on the ground.  Why is the forecast always accurate when it's gloomy? We pulled out two K21s and a K13 for Simon Minson and JB in instructor 3 yearly check mode.

There were a few launches before midday but all ending prematurely either intentionally or because of cloud.  Simon and JB persevered with an aerotow, but the K13 was back on the ground before the tug on the only launch I witnessed.

At least we tried and did some valuable simulated launch failures. Thanks to Rowan for helping to get things moving. - Peter Smith
