Air League visit

Today we played host to a group from a school in Hillingdon taking part in an Air League event organised by Andy Perkins. The day was aimed at giving the students a taste of gliding and to encourage them to apply for Air League scholarships to enable them to progress their training.

The weather was unstable and windy, with occasional showers of snow and hail, and decidedly chilly, Everyone had a great time, both in the air and driving the buggies around, with luck the fresh air and exercise will set them up nicely for their mock maths exams tomorrow.
