SCOT updates

The weather may be getting cooler as we move towards winter but there was some great flying again last weekend with ridge soaring, training flights and some trial instruction flights.

Liam is being congratulated by John Spilsbury, […]

Full Gliding Operations

25/08/2016

After a long and wet winter and a tug with a broken engine mount, full gliding operations are on again at Woodbury. There was a fair bit of water around in recent months and the ground was still quite wet but with spring just around the corner it should start to dry out quite nicely. […]

Pawnee is flying again

26/07/2016

The Pawnee tow plane is now back in the air after some delays relating to an engine mount issue. This highlights the importance of good airmanship which includes conducting very thorough pre-flight inspections. The good news is that the required maintenance occurred during a period where there has been weather that was quite unsuitable for […]
