I woke hearing voices at around 6:30 and poked my head out of the caravan expecting to see a balloon but could only see the airfield covered in thick fog. Around 7:30 the mist cleared and a balloon landed on the old runway, in the basket were a young couple and the lad had just proposed to his girlfriend, the balloon had been hanging around waiting for the mist to clear! Not having any champagne on ice we offered them some chilled wine, but they declined :-)

After that we got the kit out and with the first launch at 9:20 and had a good day, our visitors from Parham enjoyed themselves, Bob on the course had some good soaring flights and went upside down for fun at the end of the day. Justin after some good soaring flights and cable breaks went solo with a perfect flight and proved it wasn't a fluke by doing it again!

Paul Gentil took the SHK on a task around the Brize zone and others entered the blue to venture in other directions.

A good day..
