As the soundings predicted it was light at sea level and more wind the higher you got, so Cox Tor's south side was as high up as possible, unfortuntley it was still light but the clouds were moving at height. I had a few sweaty hops getting back on top once in very small thermals.
Matt arrived and we decided to fly off out front for a do or die flight, we found bouyant air with pockets of lift but to small to work at, but it did keep me aloft for 5 minutes but not able to connect with the bigger stuff. The sail planes at Brent did no better but good practice trying to stay up in the light stuff.
May be tomorrow's post cold front air mass will provide some entertainment ............................
