HOODED,

I agree that the RAFGSA should be permitted to operate alongside the VGS. I did just that for some time with a mix of motor and conventional gliders. However, it takes good leadership in both organisations and sensible flying orders to make it work safely. In my day it was always the RAFGSA who queered the pitch because their attitude and aims were quite different to the VGS. Nevertheless, with co-operation and the odd argument, we co-existed and I am sure it could be done at Syerston too.
