British Summer

Frankly, I have had nothing to write about for the past 2 weeks.... this weather is just miserable.

The 18m nationals had 3 days, including one good racing task - 425km @ 115kph.

The comp was comprehensively won by Derren Francis, making him the current 15 and 18m national champion.

For a bit of flying training in the past, take a look at this: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2165400/The-magnificent-men-flying-machines-How-trainee-pilots-got-unfortunate-scrapes-took-skies-rooftops-Britain-s-aviation-schools.html

Will Ellis flew an incredible flight from Bicester 500km in a K6. I would like to put money on him being a future world champion...

Frankly the weather for this weekend doesnt look particularly positive either. Time to enjoy my wet weather sport of kayaking.
