Good evening fellow aviators.
Todays weather at the Park wasn’t quite right for Cross Country tasks or extended Local Soaring flights. The cloud base never rose much above 2,400ft and there was very little thermic activity. There was however still plenty of flying going on, and no shortage of willing volunteers keen to help keep the airfield running smoothly 🙂 👍🏻.
Locally, Cloud Base rose to approx. 2,400ft QFE, with a 10-15kt 280 degree upper wind.
The wind had a real chill factor to it today, but nothing appeared to be able to dampen the enthusiasm of the attending Club Members. As the day progressed the temperature did dip considerably with the wind chill. Coats went on and hoods went up to protect us from the wind, but everyone kept smiling. It really was a delight to see the entirely undampened enthusiasm from everyone to enjoy the day 🙂.
Mike J and Mike T, had a productive day instructing.
A chilly but still very pleasant and productive days flying from the Park dear aviators 🙂.
I took a few pictures from the day to share with you all. Hope you enjoy them.
Kind regards.
Damien.
Not me in CCU, it took me all afternoon to strim the grass, it was Jim Hasker.
Yep, you’re right John. I meant Jim H flew in CCU, not John H! 😂.
