Thursday 13th June - Course week

The weather on Thursday got off to another disappointing start and the course members and a few Thursday thermallers were entertained (bored?) by John Si and Mark C. Luckily the weather became flyable after lunch with a brisk westerly. The ridge worked and there was thermal activity to about 2500ft. All had good soaring flights in what were blue card conditions. It was good to see Liam off in the Junior later when the wind eased a little – even if he did find time to point out on the radio that he was above me! A rare event for Liam!

Caption competition..........
The day ended with the usual course dinner at the Keepers Cottage.

In the evening, although the group flying had been cancelled due to weather, Henry and Andrew continued work preparing for Competition Enterprise, and Henry replaced the long standing water pump problem in the pump house.
