To paraphrase entertainer Larry Grayson “What a grey day”. The calm winds did nothing to encourage the low cloud and occasional drizzle to go away. There was enough height underneath the overcast for full height launches so it was game on.

| Our latest solo, Stefi. |
The big news of the day was that new member Stefi Guiu flew solo today after a series of practice cable breaks. A delighted Stefi pronounced that the K13 is her new favourite, much better that her last favourite, the IS28B” that she last flew some time ago at home in Romania.Well done Stefi.
The club was busy with visitors today. Instructor Mike Sloggett flew with One Day Course Candidate Derek Frey, Don Puttock managed all the club flying and training and the three of us flew the other visitors.

A pleasing day
