The place is a ghost town most of the time with hardly any flying at all. It’s such a contrast from the good old days. Last winter was certainly much busier. This last 6 months or so just seems to have died. Most of the old faces have drifted away but its nice to see some of the ‘old’ instructors who have moved on in there careers occasionally come in. The atmosphere though has taken a real nose dive. Sometimes it’s more like a winter’s morning in the old Sumburgh crew room than a recreational flying establishment!

The locally based flying groups appear to do more flying than the school and there is certainly more activity at Whiterashes and Longside than ever before.
