No need to worry about the wet
field, the ground was frozen solid with the coldest day so far this Winter, the two K21s and a Junior were walked up to the North west corner ready to
tackle the South easterly wind.
The
only moderately warm jobs were cable retrieve, winching, instructing and
log keeping, the day progressed well with bits of wave South of the
ridge so most flights were extended, a couple of flights found some weak
thermals and managed to maintain height.

The
longest flight was the last one with JSt and Chris W who managed to
find some good wave and airbraked down after 35mins out of pity for the
people on the ground who must of been freezing watching us enjoying the
wave.

Our new member Andre from Exeter University was flying again with us- it seems he is a keen photographer
and the blog pictures taken today were by him, thanks Andre. - JSt
