Avoidance technologies should be the end goal......

Cheers Guys,
Sorry Brian - I got swamped with work and moving house type things - I'll give you a ring shortly! Also thanks to Mehdi, would be great but apparently the BHPA has just tightened up on the requirements so I need an approved pilot to help me out and build up the logbook,

Hi folks, Are there any BHPA qualified tandem pilots in the club that would be happy to do some flying with me as part of the run up to my qualification? I did a fair bit a while back but it was all unofficial. I need to get some pointers and brush up on techniques and basically have a few flights w...

Thank you for the kind words - alas on the 1st I will be heading home after a beasting in the sim

Very soon we will have enough furniture to offer open house to visitors to the Aberdeen area - travel to the arctic circle for the summer solstice?

http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/1510814 Graeme, try the above. A great book for of great flying sites - East Hill wouldn't even make it in as an also ran :-) Well worth contacting the locals in the Lanarkshire and Lothian google group - a friendly bunch both HG & PG (I can't remember which...

A hollow victory for someone then...........

What's the row about? Isn't Gary saying enter as whatever club you want in the NXCL, it doesn't matter. BUT on this forums league if you are a NHPC member and want your flights counted for the tin pots then make sure you have NHPC as your club in your profile. It makes his job so much easier than co...

I want one......

Gary - did you know you were being recorded?

Aye, Longknowe is just like Glencoe!

Scotland!

Love it Jan - ' eee I don't know ' - you wanting to sell?

Ah! The killer blow Dave

Oi! You be careful with my wing Mrs..........

The Scout Hut in Ponteland is perfect and Derek was always wonderfully supportive - a wee donation to the Scouts and you have a great location with tea and biscuits thrown in ...........

Any NOTAMS on that Dave - I can't find any?

That must have been one beautiful flight - stunning.......

If you want the distances the best thing you can do is learn to predict the best hill for the day. Then tell Gary where it is and get him to drive you there. You'll get it wrong occasionally, you'll bomb out at 20 km occasionally but to learn XC you have to just keep trying. You've all got the skill...

Nice

Fantastic flying Kitt & Marra!

Boring soaring is over - the season has started! Thank God.

Lovely day at Tinto yesterday with 4 pilots at clowdbaste and going over the back - lovely, lovely, lovely. No great distances but the promise is there again

I even got a lift back to the car.....

Lucky you teachers can afford it Brian :P The skiing in Scotland had been fab - last friday at Avimore was the best conditions I've ever seen. Yesterday at Glenshee was superb too, we skied until Dave cried for mercy - superb, make the trip up! Hopefully Avimore will be back up to speed now they've ...

Doesn't look that bad Gordie, boring flying but no rules broken?

The other video of the death spiral into the ground is amusing - no depth perception with all the snow on the ground in Bishop's bottom landing field.

Stunning! Have a great New Year folks!

Ian & Naomi

Poached from the LLSC forum - made me smile.....

Stop tempting me!

Very impressive landing!

I may be old fashioned but I prefer the original text, it seems to have gone, a shame every words a gem as usual.

(I'm on a slow connection so that .wmv thing is just tooooo slow to load)


Room for both maybe?

He didn't learn those skills at East Hill though did he?

Gaz - I don't know if that is aimed at me or Gordie? If it's me then yes I take responsibility for my actions, there's no-one else up there to take the hit for you?! My comments about airmanship and acro were not aimed at you directly! You praise RC for his skills and I agree a hugely skilled pilot....
