Low cloud and an indifferent
wind direction led to us deciding to wait to see what the weather was
going to do before we set the field up.
Mike
Fitz and team decided to change the R/H cable on the Skylaunch which had
been giving trouble on Saturday, whilst John St. and team prepared the
two K21s and a Junior and walked them up to the N/W corner. By the time
the gliders were in place the winch was ready to launch and the murky
weather had improved and the cloud base had risen to over 1500ft.

Thanks to Peter Sm for looking after Wednesday flying whilst John Si has been away.
It
was nice to see Mike Fitz back and looking well after his recent
absence, after the delayed start everyone had as much flying as they
wanted, Nick H had the longest flight of 15min. - JSt
