The weeks flying at http://www.glos-mfc.co.uk/blog.htm

Some training has started at the club, using the clubs high wing electric model, I have my balsa park flyer available if the wind drops.
Training  and testing for the "A" Test will take place.
I took mine last week, it is quite hard. The figure "8" with the cross over in front of the pilot can go wrong if you don't compensate for the wind. maintaining a constant height is very  hard.
