Thurs 20th July - Course Week

 It was soarable from just after 11:00 but the cloudbase was not particularly high. By lunchtime a convergence set up just to the south of the airfield, allowing short runs in the lift. It wasn't really a day to go cross-country and by 14:30 the lift was only reachable by aerotow .

 

Heavy skies but soarable in the convergence (Jill Harmer)

Both course and club members enjoyed varying success with either very short circuits  or some soaring. Welcome back to Country Member Roger Davis  and Sheila who have arrived for their Devon holiday, and also good to see Joe Scaife and Rene on holiday at Forest Glade. Thanks to all - 46 winch launches and 8 aerotows.   In the evening the Course members enjoyed a Fish and Chip supper- J&P
