Club Social 20th Feb 2025 - DHPC, a History Forged by Pioneers Plus Hugh BA : Hike & Fly Mont Blanc
Join us for a varied evening in the company of :
DHPC club grandees Markus Kinch & Richard Greaves with a whistle stop summary of the history of DHPC. Ever wondered how we’re able to fly in class D airspace? Whoever persuaded LGC to allow us share Dunstable Downs? Whatever happened to the Dunstable Paragliding School? What trials and tribulations did the early pioneers go through that resulted in the freedom to fly we enjoy today?
Plus
Rutland Chairman and adventurer Hugh Barnaby Atkins: Hugh has kindly agreed to take us through the challenges he faced climbing and flying from Mont Blanc.
Plus possibly....
Fingers crossed a Rep from LGC : Experience of flying Dunstable Downs from a glider pilots perspective
Followed by beer, banter and a curry at Zeera.
