Wednesday 7th February 2018 Flying Report

We had a great day yesterday with pretty well wall to wall sunshine. It was cold first thing but was not too bad later on. We had a blue sky all day with just some high cloud later on in the afternoon. It was thermic during the afternoon with some long flights for the time of year. We managed a two cable tow out all day on the north side of the field with no problems but on the south side there were a few soft patches but they were not a problem.

Statistics are as follows,

Total Launches……………………28

Longest Flight…………………….54 mins. Well done to Dave J. who took a day off work, well worth it.

Second and third longest……..24 mins and 23 mins. Well done to John H. and Phillip C. with 24 and to Barry M. with 23. The 3 longest were all done in the Junior.

Total Flight Time………………….4 hrs. 50 min.

Average Flight Time…………….10 mins. First time in double figures this year.
