29 July Internet back on--very breezy day
Thanks to the efforts of Matt Page the internet is now back on while BT try to figure out why the new optic line is not working.
The course went well. Bob Carter went solo again his daughter Isabel is now an "unprompted pilot". Charlie Palmer, another junior is now the "handling pilot" as is Solomon Hodson (nephew to Adrian Giles). Many thanks to all the helpers this week, we couldnt have had a successful week without you.
You might notice the bus coolant level glass is now clear so it can be used properly, Tim Brailsford busied himself with this task on Saturday. Sadly no flying on Saturday due to the weather.
Sunday weather was dreadful, synoptic chart shown below.
The week ahead will show steadily improving weather, a new course starts on Monday, cycling on the airfield on Wednesday evening.
Grant Needham will be leaving us on Wednesday to start is motorhome tour of Europe, I am sure everyone will join me in a vote of thanks for his background support and wish him a safe tour.
