O ye of little faith, after a slow start due to
lack of people plus a poor forecast, we started flying after 11am but what a day
it turned out to be.
Simon M was first away in the ASW 20 followed
shortly after by Pete St in the Discus, between them they flew nearly 8 hrs, most
other flights were over 1hr, It was nice to see Paul S flying solo again and he
has had his yellow card signed up.
The NW ridge was working all day, not that it was
needed because the thermals were abundant with 6-8kt climbs at times and
the cloud base reached 3,500ft by mid afternoon. - JSt.
