Friday 5th September - Course week

Another grey day but with higher cloud base so when the visibility improved we were able to start flying. Still frustrating though, with very poor viz making it difficult for the less experienced pilots and mostly circuits and short ones at that. Ollie converted to the Junior after lunch and on his fourth flight he and Rick in the other Junior connected with the only thermal of the day and managed 39 and 38 minutes respectively. Well done to both (through gritted teeth!!).
All in all a very disappointing week for everyone - Thanks to Instructors John and Paul  and helpers Liam, Heather and William  for making the best of the flying time available  and keeping everyone amused the rest of the time. - John Si
