One glider pilot at Aboyne took off at 0545 BST.

When I was gliding at Aboyne in the 1980s, I had plans to fly through the night in mid-summer.  Perfectly possible except for the bureaucratic hurdles: legality, insurance, etc.  The idea never came off.    But it has been done in the Sierra Nevada in the USA.
