Icicle Meet 2008
Just got back from the icicle balloon meet.
Sadly the weather on Saturday wasn’t upto flying, but today we managed to fly two slots allowing me to add another 2 hours 10 minutes of PUT time to my pilot’s log. I was quite pleased to find that despite not having flown since 12th September that I haven’t forgotten too much and that I’m still progressing.
Flying out of a farmer’s field near Hungerford, this morning we flew east towards Newbury and this afternoon we flew north towards Swindon. It was quite nice to fly over land with a few more features than the fells, altogether quite an enjoyable weekend.
