Low cloud and a strong southerly wind was forecast, turning into fog in the afternoon and it was all pretty accurate.....

So lectures on spinning and meteorology were given, followed by some practical work in the DSGC Simulator.

It was a good week all round with lots of personal objectives achieved..........
Hans Jenssen successfully completed his Bronze exam and during the week all the flying skills were signed off. Rick Andrews got his Yellow card signed off. Sam Flory consolidated his solo flying and got to sit in the Junior in preparation for converting to the single seater. Harvey Skeggs and Rees Edwards-Caulier progressed well through their early training. New member Kevin Smith progressed well in his conversion to quiet flight, and we look forward to seeing him back again to enjoy his new found sport.
Thanks to Instructors Pete Harmer and James Flory and the ground helpers Richard Harris, Aston Key and Jill Harmer for getting as much flying as possible out of the week of changeable weather. - J&P
