A cold Northerly wind greeted us up at Ditchling. I wasn't expecting such a breeze or cold temperatures. Clint, Tim, Les, Ian and I, side stepped the dog poo assault course to get to the front of the slope. We didn't stay too long because of the biting wind but what flying we did have went reasonable well. Clint flew his M60 and his Le Fish. Tim flew his M60. Ian flew his little Komet and Les flew his Jet Provost and his Wild Thing. Unfortunately, the Jet Provost needs a little TLC after coming into contact with the ground at high speed. Sorry Les! Hope its repairable?
Rob was busy at our new field. Cutting hedges back and sorting out the access through the gates into the field. Thanks Rob - good work!!
We will be meeting down there tomorrow to continue with the work and hopefully to get some flying in.
