Variable at Vault

 The best bit of the day

 Phil gets in on the act chased by Big Grey (who's not actually grey)

Then the fog came in

On a typical Vault Bay forecast we went to Vault bay to see what would happen.  On leaving home it was windy on arrival it was light, pretty much as expected.  Still patience is a virtue and slowly conditions began to improve. After a couple oftest flights the lift picked up and soon pilots began to launch a make the most of what was there.

Phil L (Illogan) took off on his new Ozone Buzz Z3 for his third hill soaring flight of his hill conversion and did a fine job using the light lift to stay up until it increased a little and made life easy.  Phil had a super 20 minutes before coming in and doing a super top landing at the east end showing his spot landing practise was all worth it.

With some tandems arriving we gave Phil a rest and joined in the fun by taking Maria O (Falmouth) up for a flight. In now super conditions we had a great time mixing it with the rest and even playing with some passing low cloud before landing back on top.

 Nathan  (Bristol) was next on whats more it was his Birthday so ideal timing.  With a bit more weight on board and the wind dropping again the lift was not so plentiful.  We still had a good time with Nathan soaking up the whole experience and getting a super view of a pair of Peregrine falcons from above, nice.  Slipping it back in on the front we timed it just as the lift shut down.

Amazingly that was it for the day as the wind stayed light and finally a bank of fog rolled in putting the curtains on it.  Typical vault excellent when its on but very unpredictable.

Great to see Tony P back in the air and having fun, keep it regular Tony ;)
