At last!

Great to get airborne after all the hopeless weather - even if it was a roller-coaster ride at Big Collin in the gusty SSE wind. After 25 mins I had had enough and landed by the lane. With the wind seeming to ease a bit I had high hopes of getting Ian F airborne but just when he was revved up, speedbar adjusted and ready to go, we had to abandon the idea as we watched Martin B on his miniwing getting bounced around in the strengthening wind. Even though it had been calm in the morning. the Met  Office low level wind chart was again fairly close to the mark. Maybe better luck tomorrow?
