So in the morning I'm heading off to Fochriw, and hopefully Mark will be meeting me up there, as the conditions are looking really good for some flying.
I shall be on Fochriw on Saturday morning as well for more fabulous flying and, our new visiting friend, Andy Meade will be joining us for the day.
Andy is going to bring some of his PSS models along with him, including a SAAB Viggen, which he hasn't maidened yet. Apparently this model has a very thin wing section and weighs in at a whopping 7lbs, so he's going to need a good deal of wind to get this thing in the air. Whether we shall see enough wind for that to happen, we shall see.
Unfortunately the wind is forecast to die away into single figures for Sunday, which means Fochriw will be swarming with para gliders, so I shall give it a miss. But at least I shall be getting two days flying in.
Here is a picture of Andy with his SAAB Viggen
