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.

Waiting for a cable (Mark L) |
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.
