Flying Report Fri 8 May 26. Bongjour and Tally Ho!!!
Par un temps magnifique et au milieu de paysages à couper le souffle, ce fut une superbe journée de vol dans les Alpes du Sud françaises pour les membres actuels et anciens de notre club RSGC.
Our American exile Alan Swan, flying in R18, arranged to block the runway at Sisteron with his car while he was away– keys couldn’t be found. 😒💣🤯🤡 Sacre bleu - “LES INSTRUCTIONS!!!!”
For Harry McBride and Hary Cost it was:
The longest journey that either have ever done by road.
It was the first time that Harry M had spoken French in a French speaking country. Merde!

It was the longest flight either have done
The highest flight that either have achieved in an unpowered aircraft
Beware the hangliders!
The highest at which either have eaten a packed lunch!
For Adey Hobson it was his first solo in the Alps and his first flight in an ASH25.
Fantastic day’s flying!
