Airworks PG Red Ribbon Club Trip

22 May 2008 - 00:00
28 May 2008 - 00:00

May 22nd-28th: The Airworks PG Red Ribbon Club will be away flying....wherever the weather is best in the UK! This year, rather than pick a flying area, plan the trip, book a campsite and liase with the local club, as in the past.....we are going to allow the weather forecast to dictate which part of the country we head for just 24-48 hours beforehand. If you've just got your CP, have low airtime, or perhaps haven't flown for a long time and need to regain your confidence, then come and join us. Contact Bernard Tagliavini on 07958 460616 or email multistorymail@aol.com ASAP.

Chest strap not clipped in properly

Whilst getting ready to launch my chest strap clip popped open. I had obviously not pushed it closed properly. Note to self: yank on straps after clipping in.

Winching courses

Hi All

Air Adventure Paragliding in conjunction with Apex Paragliding will be running hill to winch conversion courses on Fri 16th Sat 17th and Sun 18th May. The courses will consist of theory and practical sessions.

You need to be Club Pilot with a minimum 10 hrs flying experience and have a canopy suitable for towing (if in doubt call me). You should also have a reserve.

Shoreham Airport shut down - then reopened

Apparently the management has been so good, it has lost 0.25 billion in the
two years since it was sold by Brighton and Worthing councils.
So the threat to our flying seems to have receded. It will probably re-open soon, though.

..and then...

Guess someone spotted a bargain.

Flights have already taken off under the new owners management.
