February seems to have been a bit short on flying days, so grab it while you can. Saturday 10th eventually provided a very pleasant afternoon and glorious evening after the mist cleared. Blencathra's ridge worked reasonably well for an hour or so in a light SE breeze. The photograph is of Phil Kew flying his Supair Savage with Hall's Fell Ridge in the background, and beyond Clough Head and High Street. Pic by Malc Grout
