A reasonable forecast brought
out a large number of hopefuls but an early start was hijacked by the
poor visibility nevertheless, we walked the kit up to the S/W corner in
readiness.
John Si flew a weather check with Vince but decided the visibility was too poor so it was back to the clubhouse for coffee.
We
started flying at about 11:30am with an improving visibility, there was
plenty of sink about so all the flights in the morning were quite short.

In
the afternoon, conditions improved a bit and there was some thermal
activity, Pete W had the best flight of the day and Tom and Jonathan
enjoyed multiple launch failures in R37 to complete their yellow card
checks, meanwhile Nigel was seen fettling his new DG 300. - JSt
