Just found this!
A flyer in my own right (although not as good as Martin!). The first female member of the first club we joined that gained an A Test in any medium (A SFE). So far as aware, still only female member of existing club. Slightly a 'fair weather' pilot, but enjoy the trips with the water models (Twotter, Sealand, Piaggio and large FunCub). Just need to get confidence to have a go. The twin engine models more easy to handle than the FunCub as they have differential throttles which helps with the taxying.
I was the full size gliding 'crew chief' for a number of years, became quite adept at towing! Generally the trailer while Martin towed the caravan. HWMBO has Diamond C and over 2000 hours.
He retired from full size in 2009 to go back to modelling. For 26 years, I owned the tail plane and release hook of the SHK - after all he couldn't fly without them!
Mind you I am not the best of cooks, and hate shopping/shoes!
