Sussex Slope Soaring at Itford Hill this Sunday (3rd November)

We are a small group of friends who meet regularly to go slope soaring with RC gliders.

We fly foamies, PSS and mouldies as well as scale and the old 2 channel thermal soaring gliders.

This blog has been set up to for us to help promote the fantastic slope soaring opportunities available along the South Downs of East & West Sussex.

This week end looks like a good Westerly blow which for us means a trek up to the top of Itford Hill in East Sussex.

The few times we have visited this lovely piece of the Sussex country side we are always welcomed by the local model flyers and we have had a great days flying.

You can park at the bottom of the hill and follow the 'South Downs Way' to the top. Its about a twenty minute walk up to the top but usually its a firm walk under foot.

Anyway, anyone fancies joining us up there this Sunday (3rd November) drop us a line or meet us up there.

We can be found on most the regular slopes within Sussex: Ditchling Beacon, Mill Hill, Firle, Butts Brow, Itford Hill and even much further afield in South Wales.

Here's Jack and Navid enjoying the delights of Itford Hill last Winter.

Feel free to email me if you would like to meet up with us at some point. We are all friendly and keen to help build on this enjoyable hobby.

Thanks
