Talgarth served up it's best
Southerly conditions ready to challenge those willing to take a launch!
Winds from the SSW at 20kts gusting 30 kts resulted in discussions
between the duty instructor and tug pilot and it was agreed that after
launching the sacrificial "pundit" in a single seater they "might launch
" a two seater.
Simon L and Dave W climbed into the DG 505 , with faces
as eager as two children at their grandmothers birthday party they
accepted the rope. The aerotow was "interesting " all the way to the
ridge after which they managed to fly for over two hours before being
shot down by rain.
No other gliders at the club flew after their launch!
Forecast for Sun much better .
