The forecast suggested there would be a window of reasonable weather on Friday, and to everyone’s relief (especially the course instructors) it proved to be correct.

Chris Wool kindly joined the instructor team which ensured that every Course member had at least two launches (or if not a longer flight) with an average of two each. Glyn Bellerby and Nicholas Johnson had flights of 30-45minutes in the Perkoz as the West ridge was working along with the occasional thermal.
Although rain stopped play at around 4 p.m the course ended on a high.

In closing a big Thank You to Course Instructors Peter Field and Steve Westlake and Course Helpers Tim Petty, Ashley Thomas and Karen King for persevering and for not, 'calling the whole thing off’. - Karen King
