Matthew Pepper6th Mar 04:00: Karim Congratulations on popping your cherry, the more you do it,the more confident you become at doing it.. leaving the hill that is. You must be buzzing and chomping on the bit for more... nice one. I heard Tefal got to Battle, and Carlo got to Hythe... I saw some lovely looking clouds while working in london today.. arse!
Andrew Craig7th Mar 01:35: Well done, Karim and John -- why not enter your flights into the league? They all count! You don't need a GPS track, just the coordinates (although of course the GPS track would be interesting if you have it).
David Williamson7th Mar 04:41: I suspect you don't really mean: 'the bottom of Mill Hill', as that's within Shoreham airspace! Maybe you meant the bottom of the hill with Jack and Jill windmills on it, which I think is Clayton Hill. Well done anyway "It's got to be rough to be good!"
Karim Ahmed9th Mar 10:15: Matt Thanks and yes, I'm chomping for more.
