Wednesday 8 August


Winds 310/05 with a cold front off to the south.

The day started with low cloud around 700ft QFE and so time to get some handling practice in the Venture.

Thanks to Mick Fursdon and to George for keeping the courses going. 4 people in all getting flight training, including a one day course member.

Lucy Wootton completed the first part of her bronze GFT. Well done to her.

After the passage of the front, soaring became excellent with several notable soaring flights. cloudbases rose to 3300ft QFE and thermals off the clock.

Lots of tired and smiling faces at the end of the day.

Thanks to our visitors for helping to make it a fun day.
