5 April Sportability day
Posted 06-04-18, 06:48 by
The best day of the week. Winds started light NW and then changed to southerly later.
Strong thermals for most of the day and several single seat owners ventured out. The K23 and Astir also came out of the hangar.
Class D airspace around Kemble held us up for a little while in the morning, and then we could get cracking.
The course continues to progress well, Gemma had a session in the motor glider with Gerry to practice her circuits, while Tony and Andy tried to wear out the Astir.
The Sportability group flew with Mike Weston and his team and used the aerotow, lots of smiling faces.
The course finally adjourned to the Canal Tunnel for dinner.
