A step in the right direction
The 2 guys involved were from The Scottish Aero Club at Perth Airport and the incident was devastating for many of their fellow members.
Below is an extract from their latest member bulletin and they are making real efforts to help other ensure this type of incident does not happen again.
"On Wednesday 30th of January, Dai Heather-Hayes will lead a safety briefing on Mountain Flying - to which you are all invited to attend. This invitation is open to pilots from other clubs to whom we extend a warm welcome. Starting at 19:30, I urge all that take to the skies to attend. As with previous briefings it will be a good humoured and informative affair when everyone will have the opportunity to contribute. You can’t do too much of this stuff. The SAC is committed to the safety of its members and calls upon you all to continuously develop your skills, knowledge and responsibilities as pilots."
Well done guys for opening it up to the other clubs.
