Latest Club Pilot Passes; Hang gliding and Paragliding!!!
Well done and congratulations to; James K, Dave E, Dave K, John O, James M, Clare B, Matt C, Anna S, Jon W, Lisa G. I'm very pleased to say they all passed their Club Pilot courses (CPC) with ease and are moving smoothly in to the club environment (with help from Mark). Most had three or four hours airtime soaring under their belt before passing the final tasks (and they loved every minute of it). I wish you all the very best in your new found sports and I look forwards to seeing you out on the hills, getting high on getting high and remember, I'm always on the end of a phone for advice and support:-) Mark.
Welcome to new students; Garry C, Ben B.
Ben is 16 years old and is training with Peak Airsports to become the youngest Hang glider pilot in the UK. He's already got 40 minutes flying time:-). Game on!
Luke (below) receiving his CPC paragliding qualification from Mark:-)!
Mark would also like to congratulate Luke for being the youngest Paraglider student to qualify with Peak Airsports and possibly the UK! Just two weeks after his sixteenth birthday he has become a Club Pilot in paragliding! Well done Luke, and all the best for your new sport of Paragliding
Mark has also completed some mid - winter training, (once the snow stopped falling)! And given the students a taste of what it's like to fly like a bird over the beautiful Peak District in the snow, with some great pictures and video of their flights (see below:-).
