Against all expectations, a cracking day at WS, with the added bonus of absolutely no rain! A big thank you to all the Mendip boys, who turned out in force. Also, to Mr Fraquet for all the entertainment ;)

Dammit, if I'd of known Steve was providing the entertainment, I would have made a special effort. Still, I suspect the weather was so good due to me not coming anyway. Mind the trees.

It's always calmer indoors :D

Funny what a good forecast will do...an impromptu scale session at White Sheet today. Trevor got to fly his Fauvel and really impressed with his excellent PSS Hurricane...

Due to a consistently adverse set of forecasts, this Sunday's WS Scale Fly-In is OFF...Attention now moves to the backup date April 28th :(
