Combe 21 June
Replying to Al's post, at last it was brilliant to see a good Combe flying day, although in my first BCC I was disappointed not to get away. I'm not sure anyone got away over the back which made the hill very busy indeed; you really needed 360 degree vision to stay safe! There were thermals all over the place but as it was lightish breeze it was sometimes hard to stay up and lots were landing then taking off again. Yes, it did pick up later on and got a bit stronger in the evening, with fliers airborne until very late. The last two to fly were Cloudbase CP students who were thrilled to get a couple of soaring flights each and some top landings, having watched all day to learn what life's like in the "real world" of a busy slope.
