Sunday 17 June - by Chris Bowman


A much better day than Saturday.  Light breeze from the South West and scattered Q’s all day.  The temperature rose to about 18̊C.

Chris Carr was Duty Instructor and Juho in the Tug.

Jay Vine, an Air Force Cadet, arrived to fly out his scholarship.  After a check flight with Chris he did an easy 2 hours in the Junior, most of the time in company with a very large eagle.

I turned up with a friend, Wendy Canning, who was keen to experience gliding.  After a check flight in the Grob GFP with Chris I took Wendy for a 40 minute flight towards Manilla.  Some good thermals of 5 knots with cloud base at 5,000ft.

Otherwise a quiet day that slid into one of those exquisite Keepit late afternoons with the warm winter light slowly softening and the Kangas quietly munching on the strip ......
