John, any luck? I have been trying to find a strip near Crossways for ages. I tried Bagber farm but they were unhappy with a C182, understandably, due to noise considerations. If you, or anyone else knows of a strip near Crossways/Dorchester I would love to hear of it. Doesn't have to take a C182, could be a Citabria or a 152.

There was a chap on the Flyer forums (SteveR) who used to keep his Gardan Horizon at Milborne St. Andrew....I'll drop him a PM. It'd be pretty handy for me too - I'm at Henstridge at the moment but live on the coast...

I tried the gliding site at Bovington, but it appears there is no chance....

Edit: His username seems to have been deleted from Flyer so not sure what happened to him...?
