A nice mild and sunny day for
the last Wednesday in October and quite a long flying list, we had a K21
and two K13s on the go today and the Junior.
After
a slow start because of low cloud the first flight was about 11.00am,
the sky looked full of thermals and cloud streets but after a gallant
effort by Mike Fitz & JSt to stay up, most of the early flights were
short, with a heavy shower at 12:30 an early lunch was called for.

In
the afternoon, the sky looked very good but the conditions became quite a
handful and gave some interesting flying, Mike F completed his Blue
card checks with Peter F and had some interesting cable failures.
Wyn and his LS7 was the only private glider flying and he also had the longest flight of the day of about 30mins.

All four club gliders that were out, were in use all day and everyone flew.- JSt
