Dear Thames Valley Members,
I am pleased to tell you that we have secured classroom space for our upcoming Club Coach course at Bicester Airfield, hosted by Windrushers Gliding Club. The course will take place over the weekend of 14/15 Jan 2017 and I would urge everyone to consider coming along and taking part. The cost of the course will be borne by the Club for current Thames Valley members and I am in the process to securing deals on refreshments, meals, accommodation and access to the Gliding Club bar for those participating. It promises to be an excellent weekend.
As the most active and best HG and PG Club in the country I feel that we should have a strong base of skilled, active and enthusiastic coaches in order to provide for the progression of our Club and continued safe and successful flying. Do not feel that by becoming a Club Coach you will spend your whole life teaching on the hill instead of flying. This is a qualification that means you can share your knowledge with confidence, be that assisting someone with launch technique, talking about approach and landing or how to thermal or fly XC. I will be attending and really look forward to the new outlook it will bring both to my flying and the way in which I can pass my enthusiasm for our sport on to others. At the very least I hope to gain a new outlook on flying and improve my own technique, thought processes and skills.
This course will be well attended by pilots from all across the country and I will be contacting other clubs in the near future to let them know about it, so please contact me as soon as possible if you would like to take part so I can ensure the maximum benefit for Thames Valley members and to discuss arrangements for transport and accommodation. Contact me at glidingnick@hotmail.com or safety@tvhgc.co.uk and I’ll add you to my growing list of attendees. There are limited places so please don’t hesitate.
Kind regards,
Nick Smith
TVHGC Safety Officer
