Do you prefer frostbite to a suntan?

Hi all

Currently Sunday AM is looking good for Itford Hill with a reasonable W wind forecast.
 
WHY NOT CHARGE UP YOUR MODELS AND COME OUT AND FLY ???
 
Where are all my slope soaring buddies. I don't understand, in the winter we get a crowd of people out flying in freezing temperatures and horrible weather but come the summer and the slope is warm and dry hardly anyone comes out to play. Surely the better weather should attract people to come out flying and not scare them away. No gloves, no hats, no frozen fingers on the sticks, no howling gales, no goggles to stop your eyes watering, no thermoses full of hot tea!!
 
Give Summer slope soaring a go - you might actually enjoy more than the winter?

Make the most of the few months of warm weather we have because it wont be long before you will be back up on the hill in minus 5 with snow on the ground praying for better weather........

Remember this?

  1. Social and domestic commitments seem to proliferate in the summer months, otherwise my spare time would be devoted to enjoying the warm wind on the hillsides. Hence my recent post on keeping a model discretely in the boot and grabbing any slope soaring opportunity that comes along.
