Building and flying model aircraft in the bedroom is not quite what I was thinking of. :roll:
(What sheltered lives you guys have lead……..The pair of you really ought to get out more!)
As for next weekend,…………… I’d like to think we might get up there.
The mountain has been plagued with low cloud for weeks at a time, or, like today, clear skies but no wind! It’s really frustrating.
As you say Alan, may be next weekend you’ll get a chance to put your K8 through it’s paces. :D
Saturday is looking good at the moment in terms of wind but there’s also low cloud/showers forecast for the afternoon. As always, we’ll have to wait and see. :!:
Are you in Ireland Joe, or are you still ‘earning a crust’ travelling?

Good to hear Mount Leinster is still accessible. I tried Kilakee last weekend - but the road was still blocked by thick snow drifts so gave up. Tried again yesterday - road now open but still m-thick banks of snow piled beside the road. Unfortunately although there was a light NW breeze, fog was condensing as the breeze met the mountain. Travelled down to cloud base on the lower road and spent a half hour flying close and low in the mist which came an went. A small fix. Roll on spring-time.
Got caught out by the Airtraffic Controller's strike during the week and had to transit via Paris CdeG - where I got to see an A380 take off. Now that is some sight!!
