Did all of my silver in a K8. Great glider IMO. Obviously not suited to modern comps but just a classic glider to fly.

Edit: a quick glance at the logbook and I did my 5 hours when it was 30C on the ground. Made the comment 'never been so cold in my life' in the logbook when I landed. Spent most of it at 8,000'+ in a pair of shorts and a t-shirt....still have the baro trace (do you remember them!). In fact I remember smoking baros. Crikey I'm old.
