Dartmoor Gliding news-Wednesday 26th April 2017

Even though there are a lot of members away on the Long Myndd Expedition this week, a small, but beautifully formed group, got together for the second Wednesday flying day of the year.

There was a strong northerly crosswind, which provided additional challenges to launching and landing. The conditions were buoyant from the start but thermals proved tricky to centre and exploit properly. Bob Sansom was up to this task , however, with a climb to 4000 feet during his 34 minute best flight of the day.


We welcomed a visitor today, Jack Dunham who enjoyed a flight with IFP Steve Raine in K13 G-CHXP.

Visitor Jack Dunham pictured here with Ged actually flew with Steve Raine.
A nice day

Steve
