I left home for the airfield today in fog and drizzle but with the hope things might be better at Brentor. (Glider pilots are always optimistic).

Whist there was no fog on the airfield the cloudbase was at tree top level with showers every few minutes. After a phone call from instructor Bob Pirie (another optimist) the days flying was scrubbed.

There was still plenty of activity though. Martin and John continued the work on the K6  C of A  / ARC renewal. ( for non pilots this is roughly equivalent to the MOT on your car). Phil and Ged were working on refurbishing the mower. Alan continued work on the  winch. Committee members talked a lot. Martin helped a pilot to understand the NOTAMS system.
