After a very wet and boisterous
start to the day the weather gradually improved. As soon as the rain
cleared (by about midday) both K21's and a Junior made the most of the
clearance with 1600ft launches and ridge and weak wave to help extend
the flights.
Unfortunately
there were not many people around but those who made the effort were
rewarded with some excellent flying. Later in the afternoon a few
members let JB sit in the front seat while they flew from the back. They
all enjoyed the experience and were surprised at how easy it was to
make the change. (well of course its easier - thats why the instructors
usually sit in the back!) By 4pm all desires to fly had had been sated
and the gliders were washed and packed away and the final order for the
day was TEA! - JB
