Brilliant!

We flew 6 out of 7 days

John P is (hopefully) going to put pen to paper (showing my age!) and I will add some bits

Whos going then? don't want to share the skys with Sigmaa 6s for asthetic reasons, spoils the view (as you look down) .



As I recall Sigma 6 was a rhythm and blues band formed in 1964 by Roger Waters while he was studying architecture at a college in Cambridge. (he later found fame with Pink Floyd)

SWWSC Flying Trip to Slovenia June 2006

You have all read Humphrey’s account of the Slovenian trip so here is the plan for next year.



SWWSC club trip to Slovenia 2006 with XTC Paragliding.



This is intended to be a fun flying holiday with XC potential, rather than a full on experts only sort of thing. It is suitable for CP and above but the less experienced may occasionally want to wait for conditions to calm down a bit  during the day.



The date is Thursday 29th June – 6th July.



The cost will be £346.50 per person, plus flights.  This is 10% cheaper than the published Price.



(You will need to book your own flights to Lubljana, generally the sooner you book the cheaper it will be) www.easyjet.com



For more information:



Check out the XTC paragliding web site  www.xtc-paragliding.com



Contact Humphrey Russell: humphrey.russel@ntlworld.com  7779212735



Contact John Nash: nasher_john@hotmail.com  07778 577539  



Then all you have to do is send a £50 deposit to XTC Paragliding - remember to tell them you are a SWWSC Member



Places are limited so book now





Please note, whilst John Nash was helping XTC paragliding at the NEC show, he has no financial interests or involvement with the company.
