Gliders > PSS

My first visit to the Great Orme with the PSSA

<< < (3/5) > >>

pss never took my fancy in all my years gliding, but having seen these photos, i must say it looks to be a fantastic side to our sport.  maybe a fouga could be fitted into the fleet.........hhhhhm,..... i wonder.....(?)

the fouga magister brought a tear to my eye (sob, sob!!!). seeing the aer corps colour scheme reminded me of the last air display of these aircraft over galway bay some years ago, all very nostalgic.

well done on the report jp and thanks for the photos.

by the way, was it all pss type a/c?  any of the traditional types of glider flying?

Guys as a newbie to this wonderful hobby iam speechless what wonderful planes fantastic pics its what i imagine some of us can only dream of owning and to fly them with true perfection.

Thanks for sharing this with us.

Hi Gerry

The event is run by the PSSA and there are many PSS type model on show, however, you could fly any type of glider of the slope, 'a fly for fun' you could say!

Hiya guys,
Many thanks again John for making the trip over to join us on the Orme last weekend, it was great to meet you and see you flying all your models in such good conditions, on the Saturday at least!! Your write up gives a good flavour of the event, great to read you've enjoyed your first Orme experience!!

We look forward to seeing you again next year, and we extend the invitation to all you PSS fanatics on here of course!!

I'm busy editing photos and making a start on the write up for the PSS site, I will add a link to that here when it's done.  Over Winter its my intention to make a start on the new 'heavyweight' Aermacchi (many thanks again for those parts John) along with the aim of completing the big A-10 - lots to do!

Ill keep you posted with progress.

Happy landings all,
Phil Cooke
