Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to all from us here at the school!

Some people have asked us when we are open between Christmas and the New Year.

Well, as a number of people are off from their work and are free to fly we are trying to fit people in where we can.

26 Dec Boxing Day - Closed

27 Dec Bank Holiday - Open

28 Dec - Open

29 Dec - Open

30 Dec - Open

31 Dec New Year's Eve Closed

1 Jan New Year's Day Closed

2 Jan Closed

3 Jan Open

The phone will be manned during the OPEN times, though we may be off flying and not have the office manned as a result.

When shown as Open, the hours are 9.00am to 5.00pm with the last flying slot before dark at 3pm.

The above list is weather dependent - if you would like to book in though do call us as we realise it is the best option for some people to come and fly before they go back to being busy at work or college again!

Happy New Year and Enjoy Your Flying!

Snow at Land's End Airport

Just to prove we are not making it up - here are photos taken this morning at sunny EGHC

There are some runways out there somewhere!

Joe and Olly - the Fire Crew not put off by a bit of snow and cold!

Well, it is beautiful here today.

We have 6-8 inches of fresh powder snow, untouched and waiting for skiers. Currently we are using Piste 07, a nice little wide blue run.

Sadly, though that is great for those that subscribe to snow-forecast.com, it is not quite such good news for aviators. We are a little bit "Gatwick Airport" at the moment - nothing can safely take-off or land here and we don't think that will change much in the next 24 hours.

However we will still be holding our party and open day tomorrow provided the roads are clear enough to get here safely.

Apart from the last two days, we were clearer earlier on in the week and managed to get some good flying in - fantastic sight seeing the Penwith peninsula dusted with snow.
