Thursday 6th August

A slightly slow start due to low cloud, but as soon as it cleared it was soarable, with white puffy clouds in lines to 2000ft cloudbase. 
It was a busy club day with some private gliders joining in, but the confused, organised launch point worked well.
With 3 booked trial lessons , all 5 2-seaters were kept busy for most of the day. Thanks to all the extra Instructors for helping out. 
The course training went well, with congratulations to both Mia and Jess achieving first solos at the end of the day, and Mia finding a little bit of wave on her second flight. - Girl power!

The private owners found it to be one of those 'difficult Devon days'.

In the evening we took over the Keeper's Cottage with a celebratory course dinner, it was lovely to see our Junior members with  their extended families enjoying themselves. - J&P
