a wet big 'm'

The forecast doesn't come up to scratch on Sunday, at least not at Minster. There's a street of rain clouds marching across the estuary with clear sunny weather either side. So the day is spent with quick forays into the sky, then scrambled landings and back to cover in the cars.

80% of the afternoon looked like this



boarder line too windy for the Wildies




An elegant solution from Dave....apologies to John, he tried to hold off. When do we get to see yours?




clearer weather breaks through, and the winds ease








so we carry on past sunset












Jason's found something in the bushes...it's Colin!





and look! there's a model in there too




success!




beyond the call of duty



wouldn't be a decent session with an 'incident'










we missed you Steve......until next time

  5. Sorry I missed you Paul, but I had to leave early - my Blizzard loved those really blowy conditions - I was getting excellent height out over the sea! Roll on next time.
