Jacking it up

 Jack floats by as Phil l gets set to join him

 Ok "Tits to the ground" taken to the extreme

 Steve W puts in the ground work as conditions get fickle

After a showery day things cleared up a little late afternoon and we headed to Perranporth to hopefully get some hill soaring in.  The rain cleared and the wind swung on and Kaz tested the air.  looking good so Jack S (Truro) wasted no time in getting into the air on for his third soaring flight.  He did a super one sharing the air with Kaz before putting in a nice top landing.  Straight off again he repeated the flight to gain his Hill qualification  and so passing out from the school and into the hands of the club coaches. 

 Whilst Jack continued to fly as a qualified pilot we spent some time with Steve W (Truro) who had also arrived in the hopes of his first hill soaring flight. However conditions were less favourable with Jack scratching up and down and sneaking for a mixture of slope and top landings.  Steve was prepared to wait but made full use of his time with some ground handling and by the end of play he was looking very sweet.

With the wind backing we knocked it on the head so Steve will have to wait a little longer but at least he is nicely prepared  for next time.

Jack flew until  we went putting in a total of 27 flights ! so guess his take off and landing techniques are sorted.........
