Essex & Suffolk Gliding Club

How's this for a free gift for five lucky Juniors at the Essex and Suffolk Gliding Club! A former ESGC Junior herself, Steph Smith has very generously donated this lovely K6, G-DBYM, to five very grateful current Juniors. Affectionately known as "Bymbo", the glider was previously owned by Steph's father, Kim Smith. Just in time for the soaring season at Wormingford, and with five in the queue this Bymbo is going to be kept very busy.

Please look at signing this petition if you haven’t already.

Petition: Require public consultation before airfields and aerodromes can be closed Airfields and aerodromes play a vital role in the UK's transportation network, economic growth, emergency services, and heritage. However, some sites may be closed and redeveloped, often without sufficient public consultation or long-term strategic consideration.

Congratulations to junior James who went solo on his birthday. Nice work!
