Here is a gallery of photos from my buddies in Britany, from their last meeting this week end.

If you remember, my friend Michel came a few year's back to fly at Mt Leinster. His son, Guillaume, is one Britany's best VTPR pilot. Enjoy! Makes me want to go back there !  :cry:  :cry:

Now that's a good idea!
That will be the chance for you guys to see Eric Poulain, Guillaume Leroyer etc performing VTPR at the Menez-Hom!  :D

I can ask Michel when is the next meeting next year, but I'll guess this is roughly the same date (bank holiday in France).

Hi Ger,

Too late for this year, meeting was 2 week end ago, but why not for next year?

If you've never been there, this worth the trip  :D

Fred,

 is there a list anywhere of all the French dates? Perhaps the French equivalent of GliderIreland?

Hey Bill,

N, but I can ask Michel if he already have the dates for next year's event, but it might be too early now for that  :?:

Ooopppsss, sorry Bill, misread the question!

Here : http://www.ffam.asso.fr/alc_manifestations2.htm
And here : http://www.ffam.asso.fr/alc_presentations_publiques.htm

These pages are a bit messy, but Google translator should do a good job.
