A small team gathered at the club on Sunday, the forecast was for South
westerly winds and showers.
The field was set up and first to fly was trial
flight visitor Janeta Clarke who visited with her experienced ex forces
helicopter pilot husband.

After 11 minutes aloft keeping ahead of the
approaching showers we landed back at the field and then the showers
arrived.
John O’Connell and I waited in the K13 But the weather worsened and
with the wind moving South east ,gusting and with a horizontal wind sock I
decided to call an end to the flying.

Next task was to rig the second K8 so
we will now have two online shortly.

Thanks to our ever optimistic members
that turned up today to put a lot of effort in for what was a short flying day
and for rigging the K8.
