Rod Elsworths's first solo 

26-Jan-09

  Rod had just landed in BJ to complete his first solo flight. 

     

From Brian Wade's report on CGC Gliding Operations re 26-Jan-09 ...

            
 John Ashford set the ball rolling with two training flights with Rob Elsworth while Kevin Roden explained outlanding procedures to Mark Higgins and Adam Charrington as a prelude to taking each on training flight in the Grob putting the theory into practice.
  
 End result - both Mark and Adam signed off for outlandings.  Achievements 1 and 2!
  
 Meanwhile, John Ashford did a third training flight with Rod Elsworth after which Rod went solo - the third such achievement in as many days!
  
 Congratulations Rod - well done.
