East hill Sun 5th
Interesting day on East hill, you could soon tell pilot were desperate to fly after the long winter lay off.. bloody hell its was fun to watch but not good ! t
The lift was coming through in 5-10 mins patches and when it did all hell was broke loose, lots of pilot flying in all directions to get the best lift, wing tip touching ! very little soaring pattern & pilots taking off into an already very crowded sky, I was surprised to see no accidents especially with quite a few rusty pilots.
Next club meeting agenda Airmanship
