Our Blog is an up to date record of what we have been up to both in the school and out of it. We endeavour to update it as regularly as possible and include a sample the days pictures when available.

You can scroll back through the
Blog and follow various students progress through their training and get a good idea of how the school operates.

You will also find records of our trips abroad which will give you a good idea of what to expect should you wish to come on one with us.

Please visit it on a regular basis and feel free to add comments.

Early Birds

With a forecast for increasing wind and dampness moving in we were up early and down the field by 06.45 to catch the slot with Nigel C on his Powered Hang Glider.  After the usual bit of tinkering to sort it out and a demo' flight to prove it can be done Nigel was harnessed up.  Powered take offs are different and take a bit of getting used to but with an act of faith letting himself "push" through the A frame Nigel was up and away for his first powered flight.  By 10.30 with the wind picking up and dampness in the air he had popped in several flights and was getting the hang of it.

Looks like we will do the same again tomorrow...
