The day started almost blue and very cold in the
strong S/E wind with a little light low cloud, by
the time Andrew L had the wheel fairing fitted we had all four two seaters at
the N/W corner.
As the field was still too wet for winching it was
all aerotow again. The flying list was nearly at the bottom of the page but
with four two seaters on the go we started getting through the list. All the
flights found lift, the south ridge was working well and we had good thermals (I
think that's what we used to call them) up to over 2,500ft.
Rowan was getting ready for his instructor course
flying with JB, John P took an A/T to the sea-side to fly the
cliffs.
Two milestones were reached today, Pete W after
only 20 A/Ts wanted a relief (he usually has to be surgically removed from the
tug) and JS lost a shilling bet with MC about John P getting back from the coast
JS lost the bet and had to pay up (JS usually has to be surgically removed from
his wallet). JS.
