Congratulations to George Wearing on achieving his Gold height, thus completing his Gold Badge. Emma Norris has her Silver Badge, Ian Pendlebury achieved Silver Height and Nigel Dickenson Silver Duration. These were all achieved from our site. Also Diamond Height was achieved by Phil Punt and Ian Ashton, and Gold Height by Pete Desmond (completing his Gold Badge), Paul Kamp and Lee Mitchell at Aboyne.

            We have had some spectacular wave days, in particular on one day, which coincided with the Red Arrows appearing at Southport Air Show when they flew around our site, Geoff Bailey reached 13,000’ (see photo sent separately by ordinary mail), and two other pilots were flying at 12,000’ over Coniston in the Lake District.

             Our social functions continue to be well supported, and we are looking forward to our Annual Christmas Dinner Dance on 8^th December.

            New improvements to the Clubhouse (Gents Toilets/ showers) are underway – this means that the ladies can have their shower to themselves!
