Thanks to Ali for pictures of Joe and shooting pics of myself flying down from the high take off (on the ESP club website).

Joe about to turn right on to the approach to landing.

Ali, Joe and the boxers at the ‘low’ take off with the car park in the background (next the small wood)

Shot from the Vertex G-BZVI Looking back down at the landing area & car park, taken over the main wood looking NW.
Alan Coffin & Murray after a couple of quick flights at Forret were joined later by Dave up from Yorkshire for an afternoon flying the ridge & thermic lift at Walton Hill. John Anderson came across from the Stirling area to have his wing test flown and also got some tandem flying. More pictures at http://www.espclub.org/alan_coffin.htm

New for 2007 as well as the club’s forum (set up mainly to help members arrange meeting for flying and other simple ‘text’ info) we now have this Blog for members to chat about the days flying and share photo’s taken etc.

November club day, picture showing Scott, Ian (mountain rescue) & Allan C in the air with Duncan just getting ready to set up to fly again, we had a total of 10 people out flying at Backwater.
