A Late Spark of Summer

A good soaring day with the longest flight at over 4 hours - well done Paul. John K. rigged the Vega and soared for over 2 hours, whilst both Ratty and Berkley had over an hour each in club gliders. There was around 6 hours soaring available. Nineteen flights from both winch and A/T produced an average flight time of 49 minutes. There were good climbs to over 4000 feet.

The weather should remain good into the week-end and the week ahead looks like it sees us remaining under high pressure with a generally easterly flow. Make the most of it whilst it lasts.
