Thermals in December - I didn't know such things existed. Helped along by some bright sunshine, a fresh westerly and a bit of wave influence, they made for some bouncy flights off the cross runway. Adventure Scouts Chris and John continued to make excellent progress in both their flying and helping out at the launch points. Doug rigged his LS3 and managed to get to the ridge at the second attempt, but complained it was "a bit crowded". I won't mention how low he was when he left the ridge to return to AD. Ken launched in the ASH and motored off to find a bit of wave. Thanks to Chris Ashworth for helping out with instruction and to our winch drivers.
