{{Task warning}}
{{Task infobox
| difficulty = easy
| min_set_off_height = 3,600 ft
| distance = 15.7 km
| airspace = Stay below 5,200 ft QFE south of Gransden. If you get low over Bourn airfield, land rather than getting in the way of Bourn traffic!
| bga_ladder_points = 93
| weather = winds from north with moderate thermals or better
}}
This task is an out and return. Do the task when winds are from the north so you are blown back towards the airfield. It would be worth attempting [[Gransden Lodge - Caxton Gibbet - Gransden Lodge|the out and return to Caxton Gibbet]] before attempting this task.
Extra points can be gained by making the flight a GRL-PAP-CAX-GRL triangle, without significantly changing the flight.
== Directions ==
The village of Cambourne and Bourn airfield are easily recognisable landmarks. Note that the main runway at Bourn points towards Gransden Lodge.
== Turn points ==
; GRL (Gransden Lodge) : the main hangar at Gransden Lodge
; PAP (Papworth) : roundabout next to sewage works north of Papworth Everard
: ''minimum height: 2,800 ft''
