| Flight details: | After a stunning October day with plenty of thermals, flying up to cloud base and back to take a few times, later in the day at cloud base again I decide to try my luck heading east with NNW side wind, I tried but strong wind pushing me to the sea I gave up and landed pass Brighton in a Golf club, with free electric car lift to the headquars and free coffee. What a great day! Thanks Catherine and Gary for inviting me to stay over at theirs, you are a star! x |
