Hopefully it is better than that up North or we could have a late night.....

XB landed back for a relight but has now started.
It is 32C and forecast to get a little warmer.
Unballasted have a 3 hour 30 minute AAT to the North and Ballasted have a Racing Task of 367 km.
Graham was working again this morning but managed to grid before we had finished launching.
We expect the first ones back around 4.30pm
Great blog - really appreciated.
ReplyDeleteIt's fanatstic to be able to hear what's going on from my office ( and to be able to hear that Graham has made it out to the airfield on time!)
Safe flying everyone.
