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

Early flying on Saturday


5 of us managed to get a flight in between 7am and 8am on Saturday.


Chris Bessent and myself flew a couple of solo aerobatic flights followed by Paul Prentice, James Walters and James Hunneman flying more sedate but just as enjoyable ones. With a nice Northerly blow we were launching the Puchacz to 1800ft or more.


Later on Carol and myself in the Janus flew RIV, BLA, BUL, RIV with mostly a 23kt headwind and Chris flew RIV, DEV, MAR, RIV. Piccy is of James Walters in the K8 above the Janus.
