Mono - I don't think that tKf is "web enabled" at this time, he is at CLN in a "sh!tty B&B, drinking pints in Weatherspoons "(sic), waiting for the wx to ameliorate so that he can gain his tailwheel endorsement.

The plan was to whisk him back here tomorrow, let him trundle the veep around a few friendly local grass strips, then send him home to Kent at the end of his half term hols.

The wx seems to have scuppered that plan and he is yet to fly the Cub but does have a couple of flights booked for tomorrow. Tomorrow's weather seems to be lighter and he has a further 2 sorties booked for Wednesday. Although the Wed wx is not set fair, Clacton may just miss out on the high winds until later in the day so he may acheive his primary goal.

I don't realistically think that he is going to fly the Veep home this week, given that it unlikely he will qualify at all. He is due to check in with me tomorrow lunchtime, so I shall let hinm know you are interested in his progress.
