Thursday 16th June

Belated congratulations to William, who obtained a logger and took it with him last Saturday to climb to well over Silver height gain in his Ka6cr, DQS.

Thursday dawned bright behind a couple of overnight cold fronts, but with no stabilising influences forecast, there were going to be showers. And so it came to pass. Four or five launches between deluges, but the tea pot was kept busy all day.
The small band of the Thursday dedicated all flew, mainly circuits. The last two cables, at around 17:45, launched into the final clearance to be welcomed by 4-6 knot thermals and cloudbase rising from 1200' to 2500' in half an hour, only landing as the ground crew wanted to go home. - PH
