Two days after his sixteenth birthday, Will went solo today.
It was a late start, but the rain and murk cleared by around 11 o'clock and launching started just after mid day. The conditions were very gentle with almost no wind and good visibility.
There was a good crowd of club members to fly and both K21's kept going all day by Lisa, Mike F and John St.
JB commandeered the K13, with Will, and concentrated on launch failures - and he was spot on with everything. He went solo at about 3.30 watched by his Mum & Dad, Grandparents and other family members and made a perfect flight with a super smooth landing, to the applause of everyone present and great relief of his Mum! Matt Wright quietly recorded the days events on video so all Will needs now is the tee shirt!
Well done Will. - JB
