short bad friday

It's a national holiday, the sun is out and the forecast is saying NNW, swinging round to SE over the course of the evening.
Reading between the lines, this tells us that there'll be a brief
period of N and NE which will allow us to enjoy the smooth coastal lift of Minster.



Unfortunately the switch from NNW to E takes about 30 seconds
so Eric breaks out the Heron to cruise the tangential airflow with
some prop augmented altitude.




big blue sky despite it being a Bank Holiday!




squeezing every bit of hot air wafting up from the brambles he gets lower...


 



and lower....





and finally just on the wrong side of low.... oh well, no harm done to man or model!
