A spectacular wave soaring day this last Sunday with 12+ kts of lift in places! The mighty Nimbus launched first and landed last after an epic 5-hour tour of the Cairngorms, while Team Tait took it in turns to show what they could do with the petite-but-potent Silent. Adrian and Colin in their respective Astirs stayed closer to home but put up a good performance, limited only by a lack of oxygen, while Neil proved his mettle in the turbulence lower down with the valiant Junior. Photos and comments from the intrepid pilots are on the club Facebook page, with links to the flight traces below.
