Flight






Guess who went flying today?


Quite a pleasant day for flying. The strong north westerly wind, the mistral, had disappeared leaving a sky full of cumulus. A bit too full in parts; once again it was complete clag and rain from about 50km north of here. They have a few spare gliders sitting around here, but finding people allowed to fly them is not so easy. I managed to get one of the tow pilots to come and sit in the back of a spare Duo Discus while I took it for a burn around the mountains.

 The flight is on the OLC if anyone wants to look.



And tomorrow? The strong winds are forecast to be back.

And still a complete stony silence about the status of our licencing.  *sigh*
