A great day on Sunday with our visitors from Milfield experiencing 6,000 foot cloud bases. A good flight to by David, who on his third flight was demonstrating how to turn the glider and was rewarded with seeing over 9 knots on the averager!

An interesting day, taking the Perkoz around the 100k triangle.

Well done to Ben! facebook.com/story.php?stor…

Debrief in the club house after a strong cross wind day

Low cloud prevented us from flying today but there was still much to do. Our simulator was set up for VR (photo is the CFI trying it out) and our K21 was rigged after some time away.

Here's a video showing Loughborough Students' Union Gliding Club doing a less than serious science experiment at our airfield last summer. Thanks to Gliderfx. facebook.com/BuckminsterGC/…

Despite the snow and cold temperatures there was plenty of flying this weekend!
