A good day at combe. More westerly than ideal on the hill but plenty of climbs to be had. Left in big gaggle at midday and flew together for the next two hours. Blue thermals to 6000ft and very good visability, Spinaker tower at Portsmouth and Isle of wight easily visable from 5 grand above Combe! Loads of sailplanes about and we had a great view of a Pitts flying aerobatics between popham and lasham below us. A bit rough a times at the inversion and increasingly windy, we were caught by the top cover comming from the west and all landed just short of Butser for 50k. Ken W retrieved us after two hours sat in the pub at west meon.
