A good unstable day, cold and sunny, and everyone who could escape from work was out flying, with 5 knot climbs and 5,000ft cloudbase reported . Most people were too busy to take pictures, but cross countries were flown, notably Will Ellis in his LS7 who after detailed study of the airmass set a task to the south west, 234km round Petersfield and Devizes. See the details here:

And here's a pic from Will, at 6300' after a 6 knot climb, and on an easy final glide (58km out) near Membury.

More of the same, please! |
Some of us are off to Talgarth tomorrow, so we hope to have interesting photos and tales of epic flights to share. Watch this space.
