Great club attendance today and a chance for several to do some interesting flights in good conditions.
Dan Weston couldn’t quite make the jump to Aston Down for his 50K, but Alastair went to Snowdon O/R for a 500K. Several other 200s and 300s flown with lots of time in the air for those honing their thermalling skills more locally. Trevor Harrod flew and recorded, on the national ladder, his first declared 100k. Ed Beadle visited for the day to do a navex in the Venture. Ben Collins materialised for the day in his solicitor’s car. Welcome to Mike Perry, an Open Day visitor who joined today; another born again glider pilot on a motor bike.
Tomorrow looks a bit iffy for anything other than local training flights, but let’s full our boots while the summer’s here.
And here is a picture from Snowdonia.
