Everyone saw this one coming, it was being talked about on forums, picked up on Facebook and bemoaned by those stuck at work -
A perfect flying day in the unrelenting sequence of storms rolling in from the North Atlantic.
And so it was, wall to wall clear blue sky with a 6kn Westerly breeze. Just perfect for a plan I had to fly from Membury back East to home in Pangbourne and land away from my training base for the first time.
The logistics needed sorting a bit , drop car at landing field, cycle home, pack another car, drive to Membury, fly, land, pack up and the most challenging part - persuade Sally to drive me back to Membury to pick the car up. We won't discuss the carbon footprint of this sport!
