Mynd with mates

 My last trip to the mynd for the year was greated with building conditions to enjoy and some top company to enjoy it with.  It was great to see Mark Southall flying for the first time in a long time.

 As the air became smoother and straighter on the slope I was faced with the spoilt choice of Saker or Wyvern to fly. 


Both could take off as the air came on. I'd forgotten just how easy it is to fly the Saker and get such good performance. The bigger wing and more mass gave it the advantage in some mixed air. Days like this are more about a great time in a beautiful place. I do worry that we might have sparked Mark's racing flame again- someone else to beat me
