The forecast was for a moist south west to southerly wind with lowering cloud and rain approaching, there was an extended briefing with many interesting personal tales of flights yesterday. Yesterday's winners were announced as local Matt in M5 closely followed by Andrew Cluskey in ASW 28T.
The non-flying programme kicked in, with talks from Tony Maitland on 'Channel hopping' followed by 'ridge running' by Trevor Stuart, Steve Eyles and Matt.
In the afternoon, there was a visit arranged by Chairman Lisa to Capital Air Charter, who had an interesting visitor in their hangar at Exeter Airport. The University of Wyoming were taking part in a meteorological research programme at Exeter, investigating extreme convective precipitation events such as Boscastle flood using an instrumented King Air.
