Forecast to be wall to wall sunshine, so the unprepared among us came under-dressed for the cloudy and cold conditions. Wind was 10kts straight down the runway so 2000 feet was on as a launch height for the Ka8. Thermal activity came and went and some decent soaring flights were had for the time of year. Doug went cross country and the last we saw, Ken was rolling out of the gate with his trailer. Instructing highlights of the day were first solos for Phil Gooch and Felix Velarde. Many congratulations to both, and also to Tom, who succeeded in blowing the myth that you can't teach your own children to drive (fly)!
