The last morning drive from the holiday cottage accommodation to the gliding site under a greyish sky suggested that the best of the week’s flying may well have already happened. And indeed on arrival it was evident that the local members had little optimism for anything other than a day of circuits.

Greyish sky (Mike Sloggett) |
Undeterred, Mike Sloggett and David Cowley took a K21 on aerotow behind the Eurofox, providing Mike with more P1 flying to end his week, and then David continued his aerotow training in the K21. Unusually Andy Davey had decided not to rig and instead plan for the return journey home ‘down South’ but was readily helping others, including Mike and David, to get into the air.

And then it was time for Mike and David to begin the journey home, heading for Edinburgh Airport as the start of same.
As ever DSGC members had a very warm welcome from everyone at Scottish Gliding Centre, with the use of their gliders for various flights much appreciated. - Mike Sloggett
