Hurrah!! At least we had a great day at the weekend, and the private gliders were out in earnest as well as the club kit.
After such a poor run of bad weather it was good to blow off the cobwebs and do more than a circuit. The cloud base went up from 2300ft to 4000ft in the hour I was in the air, and John reported it up to over 5000ft later in the afternoon.
Please note, a silver height day for anyone who needed one and was prepared with a logger!
Dave P got to fly his new glider, and very smart it looks too.
A great day was had by all, and the duty crew did a stirling job making sure that everyone flew. We had a bar full of happy pilots after the hangar doors shut, then nine of us went off to the Roebuck for an evening meal.
The Dubliners are coming for a visit tomorrow so here's hoping that the weather holds out for them.
