One of those quiet days where very few attendees waited for the clag to lift, which wasn't until 1215 and then, had their fill of flights before the lowering cloudbase got the better of them.
So if your name was Dave Parker (2 x cable breaks first 2 flights of the day) , new returning glider pilot Malcolm Roberts (whose wife provided burgers, bacon baps and hot+buns from their motorhome) or Roger Applebloom (made his first solo hangar landing - v safe) then you had a very satisfying day under the tutelage of David Jesty.
Alan C and Sandra were disappointed that Ian M cried off in the motorglider at 1115 (but we were still clagged in at that time) and I think they made the journey to Dunkeswell for Alan to get his cross country endorsement signed off with Ian.
