Leah and I had an invite from Rance to go up in his motor glider from Buckminster, as it was a beautiful day it seemed rude not to accept. Leah picked me up from the sailing club where I had been helming and crewing a Fireball in the 6 hour endurance race, good fun as I've not been in a fireball for a couple of years.
The weather was perfect for flying crustal clear visibility, when Leah was up she could from Newark to Rutland Water and beyond and did a large circuit. When I went up we flew east and out over the Wash near Boston and back. Both of us were up for over an hour, thanks Rance!
Leah strapped in and ready to go
Now she can go Rance has got in!
