Coulson trophy for most progress! Have a look at me recieving the award (click here to see the pic)
CADET OF THE YEAR 2005 - I have been named cadet of the year 2005 by the caroline trust and went to recieve the award and £300 flying voucher (matched by the club to £600) at the British Gliding Association annual conference (11 March 2006). click here to see me recieving the award
Great news: I've now finished my Bronze ( I just need to get the cross sountry endorsement now and silver is just on the horizon)

Thanks to Borders gliding club and all its
members and their support.
Special thanks to:
The Caroline trust for their help towards getting my solo and beyond. With their contribution to my flying costs I was able to fly solo on the 30th of June 2005, my 16th birthday.
Bill Steven for his ongoing support,
Bob Cassidy for the use of his photos (and Instructing),
Keith Latty for getting me established with gliding,
Graham Mitcheson for getting me to the club when I struggled to get there.
Also a very special thanks to all the instructors and tug pilots and everyone
who makes the club possible. |
