Sunday 17th April

Day started bright and sunny with a slack south-easterly breeze. All the Club fleet (except one Junior)and several private gliders were out to play. By lunchtime it looked as if the sea air had reached us from the south, with plenty of lively cumulus to the north. Much local soaring was had in the poor visibility, max heights 4000ft QFE, only one cross-country with Pete and Jill taking OL to Henstridge and back. It became quite soarable in the cloudless sea air in the late afternoon.
