First Glider Flight

Having been on my 'bucket list' for decades, this flight ticked all the right boxes for me. The day was perfect for flying and fitted exactly in6my holiday schedule. My pilot/instructor was wonderful. She kept me fully informed of every possible condition. Her skills were top notch both as a communicator and pilot. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and highly recommend it.
