Thunderstorms

He's flying again. We woke to 8/8th cloud cover but the satellite image showed that it would clear and it did.
The dew point is 16 and there are some storms brewing, with the occasional rumble of thunder,although of course at the airfield it is blue.
Today's exercise was to fill the glider with water. We worked it out after a few false starts and Pete is flying full today. The photo shows us filling up with Bojnice castle in the background.

Our apartment is about half way between the airfield and the castle.

Yesterday before he launched Pete asked the tug pilot "Will you turn left or right after I release", he replied "I will go down". And they do.
We did more fettling of the glider today and it's looking more like our glider LG every day.
