Sunday 18th January

A reasonably early start thanks to Jamie R who opened the hangar up and drove the winch for most of the day.
We started on the main runway and Steve Glassett had his first flight in the PW6 - "Good, innit" was the verdict. Meanwhile, Paul Heaven and Mike Spottiswood got to practice cross wind landings in the freshening wind.
With the wind swinging ever more to the west, we decided to move to the cross runway, before we got ticked off by the CFI (busy fettling his trailer). We then enjoyed half an hour of fun and games getting the bus started - thanks to John Hubbard for finally unjamming the right thingy.
Refugees from the dinner dance turned up in drips and drabs from mid-day onwards, one or two even flew. Somebody managed a few minutes soaring in the broken thermals.
Not a bad day in the winter sunshine.
