There was quite a good turn out of members this morning, considering how many were at the club yesterday, so all the toys were got out and taken to the west end. The first launch was taken at 10.40am which Ron Johns ended up pulling off at 600ft due to low cloud, so the decision was made to pause for coffee and try again an hour later.
We tried again at 12.30, but again having to pull off early due to cloud, so the flight was turned into a hangar landing, and the decision was made to put everything away. So with the instructors taking the gliders back via hangar landings there was a total of five (very short) flights!
The kit was then packed away and we returned to the cafe for more teas and coffees. Thanks to everyone for at least trying!

Once all was packed away, Kevin Fairburn produced two radio controlled aircraft to fly, which drew quite a crowd on the airfield! - Sally Hender
