Everything was ready to go before 10. A keen private fleet was already lined up and with a sky filling up with Cu, both single seater and and training launches started together. Flights into Wales for some, with Talgarth as a TP, but involved dodging the showers which became more frequent and extensive as the day went on. Some interesting local soaring for the 2-seaters; thermals were big enough and strong enough for even beginners to try a bit of soaring hands-on experience. (with a bit of guidance from the back) As the cross-country pilots returned through the rain, some coordination over the radio assisted an air-ambulance helicopter that was visiting the trial bikes just to the west of the launch point. The heli-pilot even confirming that we had a glider down in a field just short of A/D. (sorry you didn't make it Tim) Satisfying day, not as cold as expected.
