The prospect of winch launching brought out the Wednesday regulars. The pitch inspection found conditions generally good but soft spots made it difficult to plot the cable retrieve run. We found a line with the best compromise and we could land on both sides of the launch point at the west end.

The K21s and a Junior were prepared and Pete Warren taxied GC to the launch point. It was never going to be as long day but the looming clouds in the east were making ground and clear from the first launch.

One small bonus was that a small group erected the final main post on the trailer shelter before heading for home. Dave Perriam had the longest flight in the Junior 22mins and was rewarded by spending the afternoon laying underneath the Junior trailer working on the hitch repairs. - Peter Smith
