Five out and had great flying, Winds were brisk from the southwest 25kph gusting to 40kph.
I maidened the sailplane version of my 16 ounce 2 metre Mayfly and even with no ballast it performed very well in the high winds.

All the parts that fell off my Spectra sail plane at Lawrence Town Beach during a gravity test have been replaced.
The plane is ready for another air worthiness flight 8-)
