Sunday on hold
We have tasks and await a re-brief at mid-day. We can see a blue sky approaching and even a few Cu. The big question is; how wide is the soaring window !!! Still time for the lead to change.
Friday finishers
Not so many finishers today but a good task that made the most of the day. Lots of top cover and weak climbs kept the speeds low. A few landouts around Thame. Everyone accounted for and gliders on the way back. Saturday briefing at 10. Grid before briefing. Forecast has good climbs but some wind.
