The occurrences and happenings at Shalbourne Soaring Society. A gliding club near Andover, Newbury and Hungerford.

Mon 2nd Aug - Task week

Colin said: We went soaring We went cross country. RIV-BIC-BUL-RIV. Two landed out, one got round. More tomorrow?

Before landing at Ilsley, Chris had already done RIV-BUL and rejoined us late launchers (it had gone flat for a while) for the RIV-BIC bit. Steve got to BIC and a little way back. Colin was also flying, presumably modesty forbad mention of who got round. James Hunneman took the Vega to Marlborough and Membury. Carol went somewhere too, but at the time of writing I don't know details. Thanks to Paul, Paul, Ken and Alan for being ground ant retrieve crew.

  1. The task really was to get to as many Bxx TPs as possible - hence why we'd gone for BULlington and BICester. Carol set out last having got the rest of us off the ground, and went for BLAkehill farm. It got sticky at Swindon but he got back.
