Klippeneck 2019 - Day 4

What a wet start! Everyone woke up to the sound of heavy rain and the sight of really low cloud and no thoughts of flying but Richards view on conditions and met suggested it would all clear by midday and a good afternoon would follow.

So we all met at the hangar and sure enough the skies were clearing and the kit was brought out.

Getting ready to launch
The cloud base took a while to get up and early flights were under a variable 1,000 to 1,500 feet but very soarable.

The morning view

Same view in the evening
Flying carried on until late in the day, it was still very soarable even at 19:00 when the cloudbase had risen quite significantly.
