Good Morning all! Here is another report from our pilots in Germany. Have a nice day!!! Bernard Tuesday, 5 August 2008 David What can you say after a day like this? Winds topping 25kts and a very slow start to the day! I was having trouble even getting to start altitude and was still low when the gate opened. Graham and I left around 1300 and had a reasonable run getting separated on the first leg and then back together by the second turn. We were again separated when Graham was scrapped off the bottom of the gaggle on the way home. I followed George Thesinger home and witnessed a superb display of flying and task management. I was first home and feeling pretty pleased with the day until I discovered that the main pack had left 30 minutes after us. Initially I was in 5th place however very quickly slipped down the list and the main packed finished in better time. There just seems no way to be able to achieve a good result unless you fly with the group!! Disappointed to be blasted out of the water however pleased to be home safe! Another day tomorrow...
