We welcomed a group from 2nd Exeter Scouts for our first one-day course this year. The weather was really pleasant for a large group of young people to try out gliding, with a light north easterly wind and clear blue sky.
Second Exeter Scouts |
The group of 29 Scouts spent half the day at Dunkeswell airfield, plane spotting and half the day gliding. Some of the Scouts were fortunate to get short soaring flights up to the inversion at 2700ft, whilst others were caught in large areas of heavy sink.
North Hill cafe (Cheryl) delivered burgers and chips in large quantities to keep everyone fed and watered. We look forward to welcoming some back during their 3 months temporary membership.
Thanks to all the helpers and Instructors for a smooth running day.
