Tuesday looking promising for task week...

Today looked overdeveloped from around 11 a.m., but the ab-initio course had no problem soaring.

Clive Wilby also managed 374km in the Stemme at 76 kph.

The rest of us were more cautious, setting tasks maxing at 142km to Hunstanton Lighthouse (HLH).

For me it was my first time over water... not far over though.



First experiment with the panorama effect too... notice both wings are showing.

Tomorrow looks to be working with even lift up as far west as Bedford, and the high cloud-bases near bury... up to 6k'. The day will work well from 11am to 5pm.

Check your batteries are charged...
