For once the airfield was clear of the mist and murk that was affecting the surrounding countryside and we were able to fly out over the clouds.
After a flight with Carol I fitted my cheap compact camera into its mount and attached it to the tip of JPC for a flight over the clouds with Colin. A much shortened version is attached here.
Pete Ellison and Steve Barber took advantage of the good conditions (ok they were press ganged into doing them!) and completed their annual checks. Jim McCormick needed very little encouragement in practising his landings and we flew a couple of trial lessons.
Thanks to Ken Reid who volunteered(?) to man the winch for quite some time before taking the K8 off for a flight.
All in all a very good day and surprisingly mild for his time of year. Flights were certainly not long but flying over the cloud was magic!
