A group of us will be heading over to the Horsham club field (near Adversane) next Saturday for some training and set up help with their thermal training day. So far Ian, Will, Graham and me will be going but its an open invite and even if you don't want to fly then why not come along and see what's going on.
See details below.....

Kevin Beale & Colin Paddon are holding a thermal training day over at the Horsham club on the 29th April and we have been invited to go along. The venue is their club field (described in the post below about the BMFA F5J event). They will be helping pilots sort out models, learn techniques and just fly. They have a winch available and a couple of bungees as well as electric gliding. They may run a simple competition just to get the competitive juices going.
I am definitely going - anyone else interested in going?
Directions to the field can be found here:

The following week they will be holding F5J comp open to all. I'm going to see how the training day goes before committing myself to my first comp.
Should be an excellent day (weather permitting). Come along next week and see what this F5J soaring is all about!!
