More lift!

There was a great buzz when I arrived at the airfield as most of the club had been cross country. The short racing task clearly captured the imagination and encouraged people to 'have a go'.

We had another cracking evenings flying - with stonking lift until 7pm, and light lift to maintain height after that. Recently some of the best conditions have occurred in the late afternoon and early evening which is rather nice for somebody working office hours!

As I headed back to the high key, the balloonists were taking to the sky; You can just make out the red dot above the horizon in the picture.

A cleansing ale served as a fitting celebration to a great day and evening of flying.
