Ah, summer... thermally days, friendly fly-ins and the odd model show to pick up yer bits! Nothing quite like an afternoon on the slope in the sunshine with your mates, developing new and interesting ways to duff up foamies. A combat resurgence? Could be, if the calendar is anything to go by - there are little events popping up all over the place and some big ones, too, especially in South Wales. The South Wales Soaring Association now organise pretty regular bashes, which enjoy the conditions that the famous Bwlch mountain can offer. Check out the pictures at http://www.swsa.co.uk - these give a pretty good indication of the time they're having. Pay special attention to the 'Sheep Head Drone'. When you find it you'll know what I mean!
