Sandhays

Post by Cliff Evans »

Just got back from a week at Sandhays. Thanks to all that were there, especially the tug pilots.

Beautiful Chris Williams Topaz built by John Roper.

And my new PWS-101 by Jilles Smits, built by John Goldson.

Had a great week at Sandhays and even had the honour of test flying John Ropers new Topaz, what a beautiful glider.
We had a fantastic time with all the usual suspects present and thanks must go to Chaz and Gordon for such a beautiful site. Jane also thanks John Goldson for the unlimited supply of water :D :D :D
