Another dodgy weather forecast, but at least this time better than expected. But it did mean that the Thursday regulars were expecting a late start and were slow to arrive at the Club. The front had cleared through earlier than expected and it was a clear blue start with a very light north westerly wind.

The first 2 flights were quite short but after that, there was soaring a plenty. Although it did get a bit tricky at midday when most were back on the ground. Matt in M5 and JB both completed Club 100.
Unusually, ENW was flown by both Mike Sloggett and Mark Courtney.

Paul Kane finally converted to the Pegasus having had to wait for a nice weather day. Thanks to all the guest Instructors (including Ron Johns helping out with some Trial lessons!) who turned up early for the Instructor's meeting. There were 44 launches with Matt the longest flight just short of 3 hours. -J&P
