In like a lion...

Whilst most of the club seemed to think it was too windy to fly (and preferred a warm lecture room instead), the brave enjoyed weak wave and broken thermal lift, in a 20 gusting 35kt wnw breeze. As the morning progressed and the wavemals became thermaves, somebody nicked one of the gliders and went out to the ridge. No names but see previous post for a clue. Not to be outdone, Team Junior launched into the breeze, with Jeremy demonstrating how seriously wing running is taken at Booker.

Viz was good, cloudbase good, thermals good, what more can we ask?

Oh and by the way if its a guess the pilot from his hat competition, here's my contribution. Answers on a postcard please.
