More Soaring & a Silver Distance
The high pressure was setting in and it took a while for the thermals to bust the inversion, but when they did it went with a bang with thermals to over 4000ft. It finally triggered around 1:30pm and the few who turned out were rewarded with good soaring. I launched last and flew for 2hrs 46mins finally landing at 5:20pm, Mike turned up to tug and managed 1:30 in the k13 with Paul Wilkinson flying the K21 for over an hour. The star of the show, however was Paul Woodcock who flew to Ridgewell in the Astir to gain his Silver Distance. Mick and Brian went to retrieve him later.
