Tuesday 7th - UWE Easter Week

First flight kicked off at 10:33 - it was a super soarable day! There were four UWE students and three instructors. We were fairly tight on ground crew but the students had shown good competency in the various duties and were left to it.

The clouds were clearly in a strong "streeted" formation - all gliders flown managed to hit the knife edge lift, with the 2 PW6's achieving 3,500 and Lara in the Astir achieving 3,200 feet. Longest flight was Richard and Mike Platt (84 mins). Both Mike Weston with Dan Ankers and Simon Buckley with Olly Thompson both getting 1 hour each. Lara achieved her second bronze leg of 34 minutes.

Every one had a fantastic day with plenty of soaring, strong thermals and plenty of sink in some areas.
