It was a busy day 40+ launches with mainly local soaring of club and private gliders, and a great media plug from ITV News West Country weather.

And at 17:00, a small but enthusiastic bunch turned up based on the prospects of a nice summer evenings flying.
Lisa Humphries was first off with a couple of launch failures with James Flory before flying solo for the first time in a few months. Connor Williams was next off with a solo in the K21 followed by his first solo flight in the Junior, -well done Connor.

The next on the list was Andy Pincombe a returning glider pilot and former instructor, who after a few eventualities with James also went off solo.
Meanwhile Rowan Smith flew with Dawson Panter-Wray and Stuart Thomson, and the other solo pilots all enjoyed flights in the Junior and 21. Special thanks to Stewart Henshall for winching for most of the evening. Overall a lovely and very productive evening and another 20 launches! - James Flory
