Wed 10th April

This Wednesday was a re-run of last week (without the hail storms), the morning was low cloud  so after the kit was checked out and walked up to the southwest corner an early lunch was called for.

Considering the weather there was a very long flying list with some of the youngsters on Easter break, (this also had the advantage of keeping the average age of the Wednesday club members below 70 years old.)

James Flory was standing in for John Sillett who is running a Navy gliding course this week  from Merryfield.

In the afternoon the weather improved considerably, Nick Harrison led the way with a good soaring flight, poor Roly, even with the help of his magic white gloves only managed five minutes.

As usual Chris Warnes had the longest flight only coming down as we were packing the hanger, most of the training flights had good soaring, after such a poor start to the day it was rewarding to have such a good afternoon. - John Street.
