After much work, Paul Russell our Web Guru has opened the registration website for this years Pre-World Championships ( www.piedrahita2011.com ).  Over the last 3 days over 100 pilots have registered.

Our booking calendar is also beginning to fill up.  Just like everywhere else it has been a hard winter.  This is great news for the spring and summer flying season, since hard winters tend to result in good reliable flying from April onwards.   The almost flyable winter of 2007/8 resulted in a poor early season for 2008, but last winter being very cold and wet gave and great season over 2009. This winter has been apalling so far, with many days staying below zero ºC and with plenty of rain and snow.  I should know since I have been toiling on our new house  7 days a week since October, trying, but not succeding yet, to get it weather tight.

I did manage a few tandems last Sunday, my first flights of 2010,  which it seems cooincided with one of the first flyable days in the UK as well.
