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

Miserable March

The Easter weekend rescued March from being our worst month in 6 years (my stats don't go back further than that).  It was narrowly better than our previous worst March for number of launches (by 2) but far worse for flying hours of 17.5 compare to previous worst of 22 hours (all other years have been between 60 and 90 hours).  Hardly surprising with no flying between the 6th and the 27th.  With only 5 flying days in the month that's the lowest of any month in the past 6 years - matched only by (you guessed it) January this year.
Enough of this gloom - fingers crossed for an Awesome April.
