Events / Calendar

This page contains a Google calendar with any events known - if you have a Google account you can then add these same events very easily to your personal calendar. Normally each event will also include location, contact details, web link etc. If you know of any events - tell me via email so I can tell everyone else.

Flying sites

There is one detailed profile and that is for Hillend as well as links to various sites around Scotland via the club websites.

You can also help generate a new webpage for a particular flying site in Scotland by filling in this form. Any sites submitted will be checked with the local club prior to inclusion.

Articles

This currently includes the minutes from both the recent committee meeting as well as the SHPF AGM in 2007 as well as an excellent Hang-gliding article from the AHPC written by Colin Harrison

I am very willing to try and generate new issues of Flying Scot however I do feel that if you help by sending articles, photos for inclusion here or by adding threads to the group or then this isnt really neccessary. In the meantime I have added links to as many of the old copies of Flying Scot as I can find.

Schools

This page links to the 2 schools in Scotland - Cloudbusters Paragliding and Flying Fever Paragliding
