"Big Boy" Dean looks up for it
Ground handling in formation
Lynn flies the evening slot
It's a wrap as Lynn comes in for her second top landing
Lynn E headed down all the way from Leicester on what it has to be said an iffy forecast for a possible slot late in the afternoon to finish off her hill conversion. Whilst Kev, Kaz and myself worked on the winch in the rain she drove through the snow.
On arriving it was raining and I had my head buried deep in the truck which has sprung a leaky pipe. By mid afternoon it had brightened up and by the time we arrived at Perran the wind had swung on although very light. A bit more rain then the wind filled so Dean and Rick proved the air and soared in gentle lift.
Lynn wasted no time at all and was soon off for a nice flight in the light lift. 10 minutes later she put in a super top landing and was ready for the off again. Another excellent flight and despite the wind moving off the hill to the south she hung in there and was rewarded with another lovely flight and top landing to complete her endorsement. Big smiles as the light also faded and it was all worth it.
Rick put in a nice slope landing saving a walk as the lift disappeared.
Who would have believed it would happen another flyable slot just when we needed it and whats more when it was forecast! Enjoy your times on the hill Lynn and fly safe, WELL DONE
