Wednesday 23rd July

Another very hot start with hats and plenty to drink - the order of the day.
In the morning the lift was hard to find but many private gliders decided to rig, after lunch those who did rig were rewarded with good soaring and a cloudbase of over 4,000 ft.
Thanks to Robert who switched effortlessly between the tractor and the tug, there were three trial lesson flights - thanks to Pete Sm & Eric.
Well done to Tim he managed to get his silver height.
At 5.00pm the wind suddenly swiched from easterly to southwestrly so we changed ends to prepare for Henry's Met Office evening. - JSt
