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.

Going Solo

Forecast for the wind to fill in as the day went on we made an early start in the field meeting up with Alistair S (Totnes) at 08.00 and cracking on.  A bit of PLF training and ground handling then it was straight onto the tows as Alistair worked deep into his CPC.

Putting away the tows he steadily moved through the task book and by the end of play we had done them all, well at least attempted them all.  The instability tasks went well and to be fair the Asymmetrics were pretty impressive!  A bit more work on spot landings would not come a miss so rather than just tick the boxes for the absolute minimum we will have Ali back to sweeten him up before signing him off.  Mid day saw him with 14 high flights under his belt as the wind and thermals began to pick up so we called it a day.

Still not a bad week for him with plenty of flying and an EPC and CPC nearly done along with a lot of laughs.

Looks like he will have a rest now apart from a bit of theory and the CPC exam.
