You Just Never Know!
The weather looked grim all day when Sophie Pincott from Kent did accept an evening flight and when it happened she was just amazed! The 16th birthday present from her Grandparents, who live in Cirencester, just could not have been a better treat. The low cloud had lifted revealing incredible visibility and the sunshine breaking through cast patterns of sunlight and shadow across the Cotswold landscape as we chased clouds, white horses and the often elusive Pilot’s Glory. Totally brilliant and she flew really well too! dy
