Arriving at 14.15 it was still breezy enough but within 15 minutes it eased and I tested the air on thew Delta which saw me quickly climbing high in the strong lift and thermic conditions. Kaz soon joined me as Graeme arrived so I nipped in to get him ready for day two of his hill conversion.
Kaz and Graeme share the air
Armed with his "new" Ozone Buzz Z3" after a site brief Graeme was soon away and climbing nicely in the abundant lift. It took a few beats to settle into the wings handling but he was quickly in tune. 15 minutes later after a demonstration landing by Kaz he came in and popped her down as pretty as you please :) A quick debrief and he was off again this time launching from the corner launch to enjoy another super flight and start to play with the thermals as well.
Another top landing and looking happy
Another cracking top landing and another cracking flight after it saw Graeme complete his hill conversion just as the light began to fade and the breeze freshen, well done. I sneaked in a final flight on my Delta which saw me coring up to 1000' and having to pull Big Ears and Speed bar to get down again!
That's how lucky we were, the wind eases from arrival at 14.15 till end of play at 16.30, think we should try buying a lottery ticket!!!!
Cracking unexpected afternoon slot, great day for Graeme (Billy Whizz) so watch out for him on the hills in South Devon and Cornwall.
Graeme A (Billy Whizz) celebrates his qualification :)
Quote of the day " Thank you, thank you, thank you" trust me it's a pleasure.
