Report from the Jurassic Coast

An early start at the Beach just enough to get airborne, some hesitancy crossing the gaps but once at Eype it was a fairly good run down to Charminster and a little beyond. Some good sea thermals allowing height at Thorncombe Beacon and Golden Cap. You had to choose your line out to sea a tad. The flight back proved for me an excellent line and I was tempted to go beyond as I saw wings at Swyre but I decided to play it safe and landed. All in all a good day was had by everyone.

Report from Ringstead (Coast Run)

An early start ,for some spectacular scenery. Pilots already up high when I arrived. Good 2 hr flight down to Broadbench and back. Easy run down bit of wind fluctuation on the way back. Decided not to cross to Smedmore Hill ( Kimmeridge ) was feeling to downwind. Back to Flowers Barrow to build height then it was onward to land at Ringers.
