Saturday, good news, bad news, good news

Weather briefing was a sequence of good news and bad news. There will be thermals, but it might rain (it already is somewhere).  There may be spreadout, but the good news is that may supress the showers. Gridding when it is clear the showers have missed us.

They're back!

The launch went very efficiently, as did the relights which came back fairly soon afterwards, while those who had managed to stay up called starts. The cloudbase was high and the climbs strong and all but one pilot got back (944 took an aerotow from Enstone). The K21 deserves a special mention for coming in just behind the JS1.

Wednesday looking a little damp - SCRUBBED

After the thunderstorms yesterday evening which flooded the hangar, everything is drying out. The Met Man sent in his briefing by email......there is possibly a small chance of a short task this afternoon so there will be a re-brief at 12.00 in the clubhouse. Now SCRUBBED. If scrubbed then the afternoon's entertainment will be go-karting

They're back

All but two got back, and the others are accounted for - 944 dropped in at Benson and is getting an aerotow, and LC is in a field near Hampstead Norris so he will be a bit late home.

Tuesday blueday two

Gliders are gridding. Today we have a small task with a lateish launch expected. As an HDT eaach glider is handicapped by setting an appropriate distance.  For a K21 it is 87.4Kms and for a JS1 it is 119.3Kms. See the Task page for more info.
