| Flight details: | Great day, took off from Park Farm, Mid wales in the first task of the BOS. Incredible views, high base and strong climbs. First time crossing severn - Epic! Got stopped at 140km by a wall of showers. Landed on a Rugby field and two different people came out with a cup of tea -Brilliant!!!! hopefully 1st or 2nd with Gordon Rigg for the day, scores up shortly. |
