The course is aimed at pilots contemplating flying their first real XC, and will again be based at Bryn Bach Park. There is no charge for SE Wales members, but places must be booked in advance. Saturday morning will be devoted to theory, with a particular emphasis on identifying peoples fears about undertaking an XC, and through discussion showing how groundless most of them are. Sunday morning will be spent planning XC flights from a wide variety of SE Wales sites. This particular revision session will cover Flight Theory.
Lectures are free, and are open to members and non members.
A great opportunity to brush up on your theory. Attendance is particularly recommended for pilots considering taking their BHPA Pilot or Advanced Pilot Examinations this year. This year's BHPA Festival of Free Flight has been cancelled as a result of a suspected case of Foot and Mouth in the Wroughton area. On Friday June 29th the BHPA received news of a suspected new case of FMD at Wroughton. This was confirmed by the Animal Health Officer for Gloucestershire.
