Sunshine shines brightly

It was a sunny day in the field making a pleasant change from the misty conditions of the last couple of days. There was a good turn out with a mixture of students and qualified pilots. Chris S was down from "up country" and moved within a day of completing his CPC putting in 4 flights including Big Ears and his first Asymmetric which he did with some enthusiasm.
Dean F continued his swift but steady progress over 8 flights moving well into his CPC tasks and peforming some pretty good spot landings along the way, Instability tasks next. Nick G and Bill N took a trip to Carbis Bay (via PZ for one of them) before returning due to the lack of wind there. Lawrence O'D and Kaz P also used the spare lines whilst Adam W (now CPC tow) built up his experience. Alan J was out for the Hangers having an interesting time on his T2. Towards the end of the day things got a bit more challenging as the sea breeze collapsed mixing with the predominant airflow.
