Sunday 14th August 2011

Another of those days that start with a poor forecast and turn out to be fantastic soaring but later in the day.

The K13 was rigged first thing with many hands making the task quite simple.

Field landing checks for Mike Keller and Jeff Cragg took up the first part of the day, well done to both. Jeff is dangerously close to completing that bronze C---watch this space.

Chris and Mike brought their pristine Pirat out for an airing and put it away again just before it got soarable, there must be a connection there between the soaring conditions and the status of the Pirat!!. Thanks to both these guys for keeping the flying operations running smoothly.

Thanks again to Alan Ballard and Martin Cropper for their selfless efforts winching and taking care of an entire family of trial lessons.Training flights continued all day with Roger and Shrek, Shrek was finally rewarded with a soaring flight around North Dartmoor --- fantastic.
