We had a great day today with perfect weather for the time of year, it was very warm, a good breeze from S.S.W. which was giving us launches to an average of 1500′ with the occasional one to 1800′ and it stayed dry all day. We flew until light stopped play but it was just a shame we were about an hour late starting as we lost several launches at the best time of the day.
All in all a good day with one exceptional flight by John H. in the K21. He managed 20 mins and gained quite a lot of height while us lesser mortals floundered around some 400′ below him. Well done John.
Statistics for the day are below…………..
Total Launches…………..37.
Total flight Time…………..3hr. 49min.
Longest Flight…………….20min. (as above, no one else got even close to this).
Average Flight Time………6min. (To be fair this did include several very short flights and S.C.B.’s)
