Aboyne Expedition Day 3
Dawn broke with a vengeance, frosty and light snow, by the time we got to the airfield the snow had turned to rain. We settled down to a quiet day of contemplation and thinking good thoughts. A slide show started, some guy called JW doing enormous distances at great heights round Scotland and the surrounding seas. We thought this was rubbing salt in old wounds so retaliated with a short film of Jaca and then to prove we were not lacking in enterprise and technology Mr Pullen on a primary. This led to the Black Faced Sheep (don't ask!).
As the rain had stopped we got 431 out and continued circuit training with Marko Dragosavac. Two flights later he went off on his own and didn't come back for over an hour. 776 was sent after him and also stayed up over an hour.
Awards so far:
                         First Solo at Aboyne              Marko
This added to his prowess with mashed potato makes him a strong contender for Student of the Week.
