Another hot and sticky day - I put the ventus through scrutineering early this morning, 4kg too heavy which is "good enough for a country job". More caravan "sorting", one awning-less van replaced with an awninged one - a little dated but top notch aircon ! We should get the other vans sorted in the next day or so or we may come under severe family pressure.

Stephen flew - I didn't bother because it looked much the same as yesterday, soft and low, but it turned out better than that with better lift and higher cloudbase. It looks better tommorrow. I spent the afternoon fixing the airspace file so that it's usable in winpilot - that nice John Leibacher has put the data up on his turnpoint exchange already http://soaringweb.org/TP/Szeged/files.html

Bruno is bearing up well - he guided us around Tesco's this morning - a favourite destination when the weather get's a little hot and steamy - the frozen foods section appears to be the meeting place of choice for various team members who are not flying. He's off to the first team captians meeting this evening - we're awaiting his return so we can go and get some grub in the bar.
