A
wet, grey and grim start to the day deterred all bar a few persistent
regulars from making the journey to the Club. The rain eventually
relented and between the showers a K21 and all the kit was readied. A
very early lunch was programmed
and then the field set up with the first couple of flights being
interspersed with heavy showers. The sky then cleared and all those
present and wishing to fly enjoyed extended and pleasant flights in a
strong and gusty SW wind. A few more hands would have
permitted a second glider and more flying time! Particular thanks are due to Clive W for manning the winch all afternoon.
A sunny spell |
Peter
W and Mike F were also seen enjoying a mutual flight and Graham B
emerged from the kitchen and enjoyed the longest flight with Peter S.
All was safely put away in the last of the early evening sunshine
whilst Malcolm V was carrying
out trial exploratory works on field renovation. - PSm
