Date Sun 29th Jun 2014
Start Time 15:32
Notes Found some weak lift and flew that for a couple of minutes but was drifting too far from the field. When I got back to a more comfortable distance to the field the lift was gone so I had to land. Good landing although I probably should be a bit more gentle on the flare. Don't pull back on the stick so abruptly.
