| Flight details: | After taking off from the bowl managed to gain good height out front, stuck with the lift and was rewarded with my best ever height gain. As I was drifting Eastwards I decided to see how far I could get and felt sure that more lift would come my way. It didn't and I landed just to the East of the A27. |
