Saturday 9th January 2010

8.30 am, blue sky, deep snow and a queue of cars waiting to enter the airfield. Ten minutes of frantic activity involving a rope and a landrover and all the cars parked near to the club house.

The airfield  is covered in a deep layer of snow

Strong winds from the north east promised wave flying but despite valiant attempts by all the pilots no wave was found. Most pilots managed an extended circuit using the unstable airflow.

The view of the airfield amidst the winter wonderland made the day worthwhile.

The day finished in the club house with steaming cups of tea and a talk by our Cheif Flying Instructor, Don Puttock, on teaching circuit planning

A good day was had by all.
