Wed 5th February

Considering the good forecast, it was a very quiet start with just enough members to operate, but that situation soon changed as the late arrivals turned up.
Launch queue (David Clements)
The sky was fairly blue to start with, but thermals were expected about lunchtime and that was exactly what happened.
Andy and Pete getting ready (David Clements)
 Pete Startup 230, Andy Williams FUN, Eric Alston G29 and Andy Davey M  rigged their own gliders and all were rewarded with good flights, Eric had the longest flight again but this time he had quite a bit of help from from his iron thermal.
Nice looking sky (David Clements)
It was a good job the field was nice and dry because the tug was out for it's annual, considering the light wind we were getting good high launches.
Busy launch point (David Clements)
 Glenn Turpin and John Street were the instructors and we got through the list just as the canopies started to mist up, not a bad day's flying for the first week in February. - John Street.
