Tomorrows wind forecast is gusting up to 15kph, not as good as last Sunday but worth shaking the cobwebs off planes. Will be there 8.00 - 8.30 as usual to set up the field.

The forecast is for scattered showers, but sounds like coastal. I will be there 8.30ish unless showers are more imposing upon our field. Watch this space 7.30 - 8.00am for a further report.

As per Samste's post the field is not in a flyable condition and I believe should be avoided until it is more solid underfoot for the sake preventing field & plane damage. I wont be flying this weeken...

Was looking on Willywaether, as many of our members do, which can be searched location specific. Probably the reason why nobody has posted that they are flying today. Margaret & I both had yesterday o...

I will probably be at the field 8.30 - 9.00 to open today. Dew and fresh grass clippings made a mess of the planes early yesterday, so no need to open too early.
