Thursday
Thursday was forecast to be the best day of the week but even the weather brief at 10:00 disagreed with what was happening outside the window. It turned out to be rather overcast. Later in the day a line of organised convection kept people aloft but with the penalty of wet wings.- Chris flew the Mynd's K23
- James flew 'his' ASW 20
- Steve W in his Discus
- Karen then Martin B with Simon in the DG505
- Paul L in SF27
- Andrew L in K6
- Mark in (James') ASW 20
- Paul S in Cirrus
- Henry in Cirrus

Friday
It was wet, very wet. Looking at the NH weather station, it showed 36 mm of rain, it wasn't too much different at the Mynd. After a sight-seeing trip to Shrewsbury, Mark, Simon and most of the group decided to use the bad weather to escape and earn brownie points back home this weekend. |

Saturday
After a quick briefing in the hangar, a head count revealed only four NH members remained, Paul S, Paul L, Henry and Nick H.Paul tasked and completed Talgarth and back for 128 km
Henry tasked and completed Nympsfield and Lower Clopton for 244 km
The day was forecast to be epic and turned out to be the best day of the holiday.
