Don’t you just love long range weather forecasts. The predicted good day turned into fog, and worse than that, fog all day.
Not to be disheartened, we started the day with a hearty breakfast and then set up the field "just in case".
Operation first impressions moved on a pace. We found an old bath in the car park and got £20 for it from the local scrapyard!!
When the Kelly College CCF cadets arrived, about 15 in all, the airfield become a hive of activity. Richard Williamson delivered flight training on the simulator, while Ged supervised the jet washing of vehicles and the hangar apron, Mike Gadd supervised the painting of the generator hut,while Bob Jones and I kept the cut gorse flowing to a bonfire ably supervised by Steve Raine.
Thanks everyone, and very sorry the weather didn’t play ball.
Don
