After the previous four days of sunshine and lovely gliding weather the grey skies returned with a mix of low cloud, misty rain and fog above and around North Hill from early morning today. So with the actual weather being as forecast it was to be expected that few members would turn up today but several did, more in hope than anything else. After some further reviewing of the latest aviation and other meteorological forecasts it was evident that the weather was unlikely to change during the day
So it was an opportunity to get some ‘virtual’ gliding underway using the Club simulator and also to complete some ground briefings including the theory of thermalling - well it was good to talk about potential days ahead if nothing else... - Mike Sloggett
