Yet another Sunday with low cloud and drizzle to start the day. The forecast did predict things would brighten up for a weather window to enable some flying until early afternoon. So after early morning tea and coffee, enough people had arrived to set up and run the airfield.
First launch at a respectable 10:25 was a practice launch failure to wake Sean Westrope up. Well handled and flown, this was followed by a further two good circuits.

| Sean, you don't know what's coming. |
Next trainee to fly with me was Val Kiely. Val is starting to fly more of the launch and improving on her general flying.

Colin, Ed and Adam came to the launch point after doing some work on K6 G-CEWO. Colin was flown around by Phil Hardwick. Both Ed and Adam took a solo flight in the K13. With the rain visible out to the west of the airfield. The final flight was Richard taking Matthew Stone for a quick flight and hangar landing. Having arrived at the airfield, Matthew chose not to fly using the IMSAFE advice.
Thank you to those at the airfield enabling some flying at least. Nearly at the end of August now, maybe September will improve
