Thursday 5th September

With no morning mist on the hill we were able to make an early start. The Thursday club members merged well with the Course and although there was a light NNW breeze the winch launches were not very high. This was not a problem for the course members who were mainly practicing launches and circuits but it was rather frustrating for pilots who wanted to go soaring. Chris Wo completed most of his pre-solo spin training exercises and Mark E completed most of his Bronze flight checks.
 About 15:00 it became quite soarable for a few flights. Pete St 230 took a quick launch and Matt and Mark L in JZK headed off for Dulverton, for a photo sortie.

It was good to have two K21s and two K13s and the DG505 to use on a course week club day, - this was the first time this season despite the Committee's best laid plans.
