Today an AAT was set, followed by a wait for the weather - mostly at the clubhouse close to shade and tea + cake.....We set two sniffers up today but neither had much luck - we watched with interest as Graham had to start his engine after a couple of hours, and Simon sank ever lower searching for usable lift for the comp field. We scrubbed mid afternoon and most pilots ran for shade. Rod Connors bravely set off on the fallback racing task, and very creditably got most of the way round before landing out on the final glide home. Just one more glide as they say.....
We had a great evening courtesy of Navboys who fed & 'beered' us, and also gave us a talk on flying abroad, and the use of various aviation kit to improve performance.
We're hoping for different weather tomorrow though it's forecast to be just as hot....
