Report from Ringstead

  
     
A very off and on day. Light & scratchy at first, struggle to get to the cliffs as it was S- SSW.
Lots of bombing out on the way there and the way back. V2s got too close for comfort.

Report from the Jurassic Coast

  
     
A great day at the Jurassic Coast allowing the run to Charmouth and beyond. Several Pilots having a very happy day and several hours airtime. Cruising over Eype and watching several Pilots Parawaitiing for over 3 hours to get airborne.
It seems everybody does not work for a living or they are all retired!

Report from Ringstead

  
     
Well, not as strong as forecast, had to wait a short time to get launched.
Once it was flyable straight down to Lulworth, shepherding someone who had been before, well done Jamie.
Several others in hot pursuit, at Dungy Head it was playtime and 3 crossed to gad Cliff, but the wind became fickle SSE and light but stayed at Dungy Head to see others return safely from Gad Cliff. After about 2 hrs back to T.O. where no one was flying due to the easterly element in the wind.

Report from Ringstead

   
A difficult day at the coast. Minimal airtime as the wind played "mind games" with us all.
SSW light, SW changing with a few spots of rain. Back to SSW and some cliff time, one went to Lulworth.
Then back to SW and strong. Fickle weather.

Report from Ringstead

   
A good afternoon at the Coast. Thermic on the ridge allowing good height to get to the cliffs.
First foray proved to be a little light on the cliffs but then it got better. Quite a few turned up to air their wings.
