With a S/E wind forecast and bitterly cold wind we
were looking for an excuse for not flying from the N/W corner, as luck would
have it there was a brisk Southerly wind with a tiny bit of West in it which
stayed with us all day.
The green romper-suit brigade was well in evidence
except for Dave C who has a blue one, the South ridge was working after a fashion
and several flights were getting on for 30min the top spot was taken by Joe S
this week with Richard F & JSt who had a 400ft climb in a thermal a very
close second, not counting Mr & Mrs CFI who flew to Mendip and back in the
Rotax Falke.
Last flight of the day |
Everyone flew and we washed the gliders......
Antiques still work if they are looked after..,Vince and K13 also in the picture.. |
....and put
them to bed at 4.30pm leaving the ground nice and icy for the Thursday chaps. -
