It was a slowish start with a very light south westerly wind, Mike Horwood was first up with Pete Harmer for check flights and conversion to the Junior, after simulated launch failures Mike resoloed the K21 followed by two flights in the Junior.

| Congratulations to Mike for converting to the Junior (Mike Horwood) |
It was good to see Dave Albasiny back at the Club and he enjoyed some currency flights with Peter Smith.

| Well done to James for converting to Perkoz (Mike Sloggett) |
Meanwhile Mike Sloggett was putting James Smart through some hoops for checking out to fly the Perkoz solo. Ray Dodd was invited to soar for a two hour flight in the Junior over lunch. Peter March was also back solo after a few weeks off.

A few private owners launched and disappeared under the only street of the day towards Bridgewater and the Quantocks.
After lunch the cloudy remnants of an occluded front stopped the soaring for a while, but after the wind had swung round to north west the sky opened up again for some more soaring. Thanks to those who stayed late to ensure everyone flew. - J&P
