Saturday 29th January 2011

With the early wind in the NE there was an indecent haste to get flying. There were several private gliders rigged and waiting, along with several visitors from North Hill  So the scene was set.

The wind strength never reached the forecast level which would almost certainly set up a good wave system. Instead pilots were teased with occasional glimpses of wave and rotor.

However, training continued apace with the two seater busy all day.  Everyone had a good time trying to find the elusive lift and the best flight of the day was Bob Jones in the Open Cirrus who managed to find what was probably the only thermal of the day.
