Another sweltering hot day, but the Thursday regulars were there in force, even though some can still not fly. Unfortunately the promised lack of soaring was a reality today, with just a couple of extended circuits.
First two junior flights of the day were Mike and Barbie Fairclough who managed to lay on a great formation landing for us.

Most notable flight was Mike Horwood in a K21 who managed to find some small low bubbles on the south ridge (which must have been generally out of phase with the southsoutheasterly wind the rest of the day.

Thanks also to Robert for standing in as tuggie although aerotows weren't required.

But 21 flights in all with solo members keeping currency, let's hope we get the go ahead for training to resume very soon. Thanks everyone - J&P
