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

Sunday 19th

OK so got a bit out of order with the blog entries.  One of those days where the duty instructor will just have to accept ends will be changed.  Started the day with easterly which was forecast to go to SW and then NW - and it did.  It was good to see the Swales making an appearance which set the longest flight time to beat.  The record looked quite safe lift got scarce until James W launched the K8 into an unpromising sky and somehow managed to stay airborne longest than anyone else.
Couple of visitors from Lasham dropped in and took a relight one of whom made it back whilst the other needed more help from another field.
