Gliding in Chippenham

A wee bit of a late post but I really enjoyed my day out gliding in Chippenham. Thanks M for arranging this. It was a great day, perfect weather and really thrilled to see the Air Cadets are full of enthusiastic kids. Wish I had been aware of them as a group to join when I was younger!

I was really surprised to find out that launching a glider isn’t just done by another powered craft but among other things also by a bungy cord attached to a machine at the other end of the field that pulls the glider into the air. Very cool! I even got to fly the glider as well. Awesome times.
