GLIDER EXPERIENCE ON SATURDAY 8 OCTOBER
Ever wanted to feel the exhilaration of being in a glider. Now is your chance !

RALLY & SPOT LANDING
Thanks to Rob Jonkers who will assist with a Fun Rally and Spot Landing.
Test your flying, navigating and “cabin compatibility” skills 

This is a fun flying rally where pilot and navigator work together (or at least that is the general plan!)… to find their way around a plotted route. The route is approximately 25nm and should be easy to follow from the map provided (…or not?!….…we know better as many pilots have shown us that they like to “design their own route”).

Join the fun of flying with a specific intention and improve your flying & navigation skills as well as your ability to follow simple instructions and have fun while doing it!”
