Day 1, Course 1

It was the 1st day of the first NGC mid-week course of 2010. Mick was out early with the K13 and course students Geoff L and new member Mark. Also out was Jan flying ASW-20 'LY' and cadet Beth R, who flew with me in 'T12'. It was not a classic, but still soarable. It turned out to be a rather blustery day with rough, broken thermals. Nevertheless, everyone that flew got some soaring in before top-cover from the west cut off the energy. Even George our tuggy managed some soaring in the K13 whilst the course was on lunch-break. The longest flight was over an hour.
