Congratulations to Richard Foster who completed an Assistant Flying Instructor Course with David Young on 8th March and who successfully passed his Instructor test with FIE Paul Dewhurst on 9th March. Richard, from Staffordshire, whose recent flying has been on his AX3, started his training course with local pilot Julian Midder in the Eurostars on 8th February. Richard, who in real life is a fire fighter, has part time work lined up with another flying school. Congratulations also to Julian Midder who attended the same course and who passed his test with Fiona Luckhurst on 25th March 2012. With his new Instructor ticket Julian was able to help with ground briefing and flying for the Cotswold Airport Scholarship this Easter. We wish Richard and Julian every success with their future flying instruction.
