Sunday 10th

Hooray – a flyable day. Not only flyable but thermals and ridge lift to be sampled and excellent vis. Chris K pulled airbrakes after half an hour to let others play. Trevor was the only person able to match Chris’s time but several of us got managed to at least soar a little. Just over 5 hours flown off 29 launches. Question: what happens when you put a heavy glider (such as a Janus) with two substantial pilots (such as…) on the end of a cable. Answer: the cable gives up (well, only once. they did manage to get 3 launches)
