The first time that I have flown the entire Cotswold ridge in one flight. The wind was not clasic at 270 15 to 22 knots but a 2.5 knot thermal to 4000 feet at Broadway made it possible. The rest was ridge running between hill top hight and 1200 feet above the hills. Very good fun and a great start to the season. Trevor Stuart was in front most of the time which gave me confidence and made it much easier.
