It was cold and the padded onesie's were out in force, the wind was a fresh north easterly (not the warmest launch point on the field) and today the sun was missing! Those of the Thursday regulars who hadn't defected to sunny Wednesday this week, enjoyed good but cloudbase limited launches initially 1500ft but reducing a little during the day. There were some extended circuits - of 8 minutes with a little lift on the northern side of the airfield. Highlight of the day was Chris M converting to the Junior.
