The stream of fronts and troughs crossing the south west continues. Forecast was for cloud base to be not much above ground level, so no chance of flying. Again only a small group arrived at the club.

After teas and coffees with biscuits supplied by the fleet manager, we looked for tasks that could be undertaken. Following the hard work and welding carried out by Scratch, the K13 trailer steelwork required wire brushing and painting with Hammerite. Sean, Ed and Matt armed themselves with wire brushes, paint and brushes and started the task. Slow progress was made and part of the task has been completed. More to be done on the next non-flying day.

After his trip to Denbigh, Richard brought his trailer to the hangar. The Discus was decanted into the hangar. Was this for some fettling ready for the soaring season? No, it was to continue the internal lining of the trailer with carpet underlay, a job started whilst he was away and now needed finishing.

After lunch the Discus was re-packed and the trailer returned to the east end. No flying, but some good work carried out. Better weather soon please.
