Glider Pilots of PPRuNe

[fisbangwollop]

Sollas...many happy hours spent flying my Pilatus b4 in that neck of the woods.......mainly at Feshiebridge...one of the most exciting places to fly you could find.......great hill lift, especially once you move round into the bowl...a big decision to make though from the front hill to the back...will I have enough height on to make the bowl?????.......good thermals on nice sunny days popping of the ridges and cracking wave in the right conditions!!.........did my Silver duration 5 hours flying the ridge in a snow storm one April many moons ago...... sold the B4 about 20 years ago and took up sailing instead but now got a hanckering to get back flying and convert my 300 hours P1 into an NPPL...
