Sunday 30th May

Well the wind is blowing and theres a hint of rain in the air, can mean only one thing. We must have a event day on WOOP!

C ya there

Reporting from the field again, and the weather is fantastic! Sunny with the odd cloud coming through. It's quite cool though, and the wind is, er, rather windy! I'd guess about 20mph?

Andy

Who cares how windy it is!!!
Im flying!!!
I havent flown for a good 4-5 weeks now

Just had the first flight of the day, which was interesting. The highlight was seeing a buzzard flying past us, backwards.... It seems the wind has pocked up a bit, and is rather gusty too....

And the wind is picking up even more! I'm going to call it a morning and pop back this afternoon if the wind drops. At the moment, the only thing that will fly forwards, is a pylon racer, and I dread to think what the downwind legs would be like!

Andy

Oh dammit
I think if it doesnt calm down I will have to give it a miss ;(

Yeah such a shame was thare about 9.30 till 11.30 didnt even bother opening the boot

Damm you mother nature!

M

Be honest, you were worried about the boot of your flimsey Marks Roly-Poly MG falling off in the wind really.....

Dammit, no flying for another week!
And ive got this week off aswell!!

about an hour ago went to the field,no one there .Going Kiting later when the High Tide is on the way out.Think I saw Andy going towards Rhuddlan as I was going towards the field

You probably did John, I must have left just before you got there. The wind has put most people off I think, so kitinig is probably the best idea for today!

I'm hoping the wind dies down this afternoon, but looking put of the window, it hasn't yet.

Andy

JB and I went to the slope soaring open day at Moel Famau - sorry but 'twas certainly a glider day lads !
Met Bob Gadsy making his weary way up the hill as we were coming down - he had been to the Orme earlier, and said it was good up there also.
