Jonker Sailplanes UK Club Class Nationals 2026

Bristol and Gloucestershire, United Kingdom,   1 August 2026 – 9 August 2026

Day 2 brings another sunny soarable day

The weather smiled on us again today and we were able to launch the grid at 12:30 on a 239 km racing task into a mostly blue sky with scattered small cumulus. We expect conditions to blue out during the day. Thin high cloud is forecast to enter the task area from the west later this afternoon which might give a few challenges for the last leg. but at the moment on task they are enjoying strong blue thermals to 5500 feet.
