Expectation was high but yet again disappointment from the strong north easterly blast distorting any glimmer of thermals. The low inversion at 2200ft QFE didn't help, but all was not lost - broken thermals gave some extended flights of ~35 minutes. Most people lost interest so we packed up early- evening group had already been cancelled. Welcome to new member Nigel - power pilot from Exeter and aviation writer.
