The blinds were down in
the Clubhouse with the cross-country course members deep in lectures, the Wednesday club members meanwhile walked a K21 to the Southwest corner.
John
Sillett and Mike Fitz were first in the air with a good soaring flight,
as more members turned up we walked another K21 up to the launch point as the course members didn't need it.
The
soaring was very good with easy thermals eventually going up to 3.000ft
many of the flights airbraking down, Pete Startup launched about
midday and disappeared for the rest of the day (probably going around the
club 100k several times).

Last flight of the day (Andre Tse) |
It
was a surprisinglĂ˝ good day but you wouldn't have thought so by looking
at the sky, Pete Warren took the tug to the launch point but had no
customers. - John Street.
