A bright clear morning and light southerly winds forecast it was hopefully
going to be a good days flying. So with only eight members slowly arriving it
was decided to get a K8 out of the hangar and go flying.

Most of the flights were of only of an average 5 minutes. Dave Westcott and
Ed Borlase were pleased to fly solo and maintain currency. Leith and Steve Fletcher
also had a couple of quick circuits. Roger Applebloom managed two extended
circuits of 10 minutes. But flight of the day went to Andy Davey who found some
lift and managed 18 minutes.

Thank you to everbody who shared the winching, retrieving and running the
launch point. Eventually some light rain arrived and we packed everything away
having all flown to keep ouselves current.
