Sunday 14th. Sunny skies again prevailed, as a light and increasingly cold NNW'ly continued to blow. 8 ATs were flown off runway 02 in either of the club's two K21s, but in the absence of any lift, flight time was a function of release height, with Stuart Wallace's 21 minutes with Fred Brown as P1 and 19 minutes with Pete Goodchild as P1 both being the result of 3,000' tows. For those choosing to release at 2,000' QFE, flight times of 11-13 minutes were typical, with Fred and Adam Sayer's 15 minutes in KLW being an outlier.
