What currently bothers me about the weather is the predicted 14mph winds Thursday evening which look like scuppering my balloon flight for the 6th time! #firstworldproblems

What a great day that was, gorgeous weather in the morning and a lively breeze whilst walking the static then found a nice shady spot for 11am and didn’t move until gone 4pm after the E4B had landed.

Worth seeking out on Sunday do you think, or the kind of shady spot 50000 other people will be trying to stand in?!

I am sure others will jump on it, was behind the Red service station fencing, the sun was behind so the fencing cast a decent shadow and kept me and my Dad out of the sun until 4pm.

Cool thanks. I did think that, the sun is behind you - at least slightly - pretty much all day, so anything facing the runway will provide shade.
