Last day of the course and it was hoped for some nice gentle conditions, but instead there was a rather brisk and gusty north-westerly, but again it became good and soarable, with the ridge sort of working, nice looking streets and wave interference.
The course members enjoyed both launch failure practice, circuits and long soarable flights, with flights going outside their normal familiar area.
Chris C, following completion of Bronze flying tests yesterday to complete his Bronze, flying the Junior in the morning, went on a field landing exercise with Ian M in the Rotax Falke. (The fields are in short supply at the moment with the long crop waiting to be cut).
A very successful course with only one day lost to the weather with a total of 84 launches and about 20 hours flying. Thanks to Instructors Pete H and Chris W and helpers William, Gordon and Jill.

Pete St in Discus 230 flew Dulverton and Molton, and Eric enjoyed his first flight in his new toy.

| Eric's ASG29 or is it an ASW27-18? |
In the evening, a large group from Honeywell and Westland, with family Bennett enjoyed good flying and a barbeque.
