The day had an unpromising start (low cloud etc), and developed into a great flying day.
A lecture on winch launch methods was followed by a practical application by our trainees.
Welcome to our visitor Dev from the Mynd, Dev is a nickname because his real name is unpronounceable. Several trial lessons were flown by Martin, and the club training was busy all day.
Thermals from around 12 noon onwards, until overdevelopment in the late afternoon.
Rain showers brought proceedings to a stop about 5.30. only to clear up after the hangar doors were closed!

Late news
After 3 uneventful flights in the K6, with no broken weak links. Alan Carter was signed up to drive the winch and spent all afternoon launching, almost to perfection, a multitude of happy flyers. I had a great time doing it too.

You forgot to mention. After 3 uneventful flights in the K6, with no broken weak links. Alan Carter was signed up to drive the winch and spent all afternoon launching, almost to perfection, a multitude of happy flyers. I had a great time doing it too.
But it's OK, no recognition seeked,(wink) just put me on the winch driver's list and I'll be happy to drive the ML anytime. XXXXX
