The occurrences and happenings at Shalbourne Soaring Society. A gliding club near Andover, Newbury and Hungerford.
Wednesday 27th
Not exactly a promising day with complete cloud cover and a south-easterly. Not many folks in attendance with some of the regulars at Sutton Bank and of those there Colin B was getting the club trailer into a usable state and the HAX boys were busy fettling. We threw a K13 into the air for a weather check and I was able to report cloud base at 1,600' - which just happened the be launch height. After a couple of hours the cloud base got lower and it was time to put the toys away - besides there's a limit to how many 5 or 6 minute flights one wants to take. A modest 11 launches.
