We started out on the Friday with 36 flights, with almost everyone managing a bit of soaring, including 2 hours 30 mins by "Miff" in the K6e. Dave Watt and Derren Francis tried a mini cross country in the Ventus and Duo.
On the Saturday things improved even more, with over 80 flights, and again some soaring by most pilots.
On Sunday, we manage about 55 flights, and yet again many pilots managed to soar. Pete Harvey stayed up for almost three hours in the mighty Nimbus.
So if you are staying at home waiting for the better weather, well, you are missing the chance to fine tune your skills ready for when Spring and (for those with really good memories) Summer finally arrives.
Safety Talk
Don't forget that Hugh Browning is coming along to give a talk on Saturday 28 Feb at 1830 in the briefing room. Hugh has a reputation for giving very interesting and informative safety talks which review and discuss accidents. Come along and don't become a statistic.
