Thursday 22nd March 2012

A trough of low pressure approaching from the NW. rain expected by midday, but eventually arrived at 4.30---some things are good if they are late!

Visibility wasn’t great, and soaring was very difficult. We retired to the launch vehicle for a briefing on how to get out of trouble if caught in cloud.

Later the CCF cadets arrived. Richard continued his excellent work teaching a group how to fly the simulator, while Robin and Steve pushed on with another group clearing the car park as part of operation first impressions.

Mike Sloggett, Matthew MacKay, Bob and I set about flying with the remaining cadets until rain finally stopped play.
