Wayne flying over Fairbourne.The forecast for today was light and NW, which provides a multitude of sites you can go to, but also an agonising decision as to where it is going to be best. It was windy in the morning and reports from Llangollen said 31mph on take off there. People were flying the Lawley, and setting up on the Mynd, but Geoff, Wayne, Michaele and I decided to go to Fairbourne, as it looked a lot sunnier there.

It was sunny, but very windy. Wayne had a fantastic flight on his HG, crossing over towards Cader Idris and flying nearly to Barmouth and back. James D. and Phil B. did fly their PGs and it was fine once you got away from the ridge, but on launch the conditions were feisty, the wind was strong, and the rest of us didn’t fly.

We had a great dinner on the way home, next to the estuary whilst the sun was setting.
