Sunday 21st March 2010

Warm and sunny to start with 240/15 winds. Thermals started popping off by 9.30, as the day progressed the winds backed more southerly and strenghtened. Around 4pm cloudbase reduced to 600ft as the frontal systems approached.

A busy day on the field, with several trial lessons and pupils.

Unfortunately for Trevor he couldnt launch the Jantar (technical problem) when he needed to and the conditions deteoriated before he could get on his task.

Sandra flew the K6 for the first time, well done. The day was finished off with a field landing briefing.

Great to see people now bringing in the weather and NOTAM information. keep it up, practice makes perfect.

We now have a computer in the clubroom, the old charts donated are being handed out to trainees, the bronze syllabus is on the computer, we have a whiteboard for the launch vehicle and most importantly we have a coffee machine.

Thanks everyone for making that all happen.
