All the gliders were out
early ready for the Wednesday club and the June course but the wind
direction was not as forecast and poor visibility and low cloud delayed the
start of flying.
The
wind eventually settled to the northeast so all the the gliders were walked
up to the southwest corner, the conditions were uninspiring to start with, but good
conditions for launch failure practice while the poor visibility persisted.

After
lunch the weather gradually got better and Tim Johns in 877 and Pete Startup in 230
had long soaring flights - yeah, I absolutely nailed it at 8 minutes. Oh, hang on - just checked again and it was only 7 minutes - bugger - 230.
Mike Robinson consolidated his solo flying the K13, all the club members flew in the less than perfect conditions. - John Street.
