Yesterday Mrs C had her first experience of gliding, it was a birthday present she got from a friend of hers earlier in the year. Although I stayed on the ground I had a great time as the people at the Southdown Gliding club were very friendly. Mrs C's pilot for the trial lesson was a test pilot for a commercial airline, he flight tests airliners after they have had major services or significant work carried out, and he just happens to be a glider pilot as a hobby. This is Mrs C coming into land after a 45 minute flight. We might have a glider pilot in the making.
