1 August Grant off on his travels

210/15 thermals to about 4000ft QFE

A busy club day, the T21 came out for an airing and Robin and Tony Parker spent the day flying it and taking visitors up for a treat.

The soaring conditions were delayed by top cover which reduced the thermal strengths.

The regular Wednesday team helped keep the launchpoint operating smoothly, thanks in particular to Paul who managed to get trapped on the logkeeping all day. Lesley popped in for a flying visit, great to see her.

The course did well, spinning in the K13 was the order of the day for Brian and Patrick, meanwhile Max is getting to grips with circuits.

The outlook for Thursday is not so great for soaring, frontal systems have changed the picture somewhat. Briefing is planned for 7am and last launch 15.45.

Friday looks like some modest local soaring pm. Last launch still 16.00hrs.

Dinner at the tunnel house later was very pleasant.
