Overnight cold front cleared giving us a bright, warm? start with a fresh southwesterly wind, with keen members wanting training and check flights. The first briefing bell was rung at just after 10:00 and plans were made.
As might be expected in these conditions, and before any convection started there was evidence of wave above Broadhembury. Then convection started and the wind strengthened and it changed from smooth, benign to quite exciting conditions.
There was some soaring, longest flight 23 minutes by Keith in a Junior. Mark L experienced his first wave flight (needs the lecture now). Ian resoloed his new knee in K21. Towards the end of the afternoon, K21 launches were reaching 1900ft and 19 members flew and everyone went home happy.
