Nice soarable day with the wind from the NW.

Lots of flying today with Simon Tree completing some more solo flights after his first solo yesterday. Best flights of the day belong to the K6e syndicate Martin and Alan who managed 3 hours between them., in fact, Alan had declared his silver cross country leg to North Hill but the day wasn't quite that good.

Colin Boyde with Don in the back of the K13 went out towards Okehampton and ended up low over the hills and ridges at Sourton and, after a nail biting glide towards the airfield, they were saved from a field landing by some reduced sink and ridge lift over Blackdown. Good effort chaps.
