Wednesday 25th June

A fabulous looking day.A nice big task was set - one of the new variable barrel tasks where the total length was 356km but the lower handicapped gliders would fly around 300km. We went off north east to Graham Water, then down to Burbage, and back via Bicester and Shipston. Top cover made the southern edge a bit slow, but the conditions back at Shenington were terrific, and didn't cut off as expected. A great day was had by all.

Just look at that sky as we packed up....The evening was gorgeous, and we had a lovely Moroccan meal cooked by Phil Atkinson, followed by a display of Middle Eastern dancing.
