Sorry Steve, you just reminded me that I promised you a tandem flight some time ago!

I think you should be just about within the weight range so I'l try and fit you in sometime soon.

Promise!    :wink:

Congratulations to Chris Dusgate on getting his Tandem Pilot rating.  We had good conditions to do the training flights last week and Chris passed his  assessment with flying colours.  Next up for assessment will be John Nash as soon as we get a flying window.

Gerry Lawson and Norris Sheldon attended the BHPA Club Coaching Course last weekend at the Long Mynd club in Shropshire and now join the team as qualified club coaches.  Well done guys!
