Another busy day at North Hill with a long flying list and Trial lesson visitors. The forecast suggested soarable weather to the east and west, and so it proved, - with it difficult to get away from North Hill.
Busy launchpoint (Mark Courtney)
The aerotows proved more successful than the winch, until after a change of airmass when better looking cumulus started forming, and the second half of the afternoon became easy soaring.
Well done Tom (Mark Courtney)
Well done to Tom Sides for his BI revalidation with Mark Courtney.

"Difficult first hour escaping from Devon, it improved markedly from Salisbury onwards with a nice run home although I never found today very easy. With SM and JB." Pete Startup
Thanks to everyone for keeping the busy launchpoint running smoothly, 37 winch launches and 11 aerotows - J&P
