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.

| North Hill on a hangar flight with John Sillett (Connor Williams) |
Pete Startup 230, Simon Minson SM and John Burrow JB headed off to the good conditions with Pete and Simon completing 307kms O/R to Candover Church and JB turning at Salisbury.

"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
