:)Went with the wife to Chatsworth House, to have a look around very impressed indeed.
On the way home we made a quick diversion to Camphill airfield the home of the Derbyshire and Lancs Gliding Club. This is an airfield I have never visited before.
On our arrival I was dismayed to find that there was no flying. Everything was locked up. But 3 club members were cutting the grass and a quick chat with them produced a guided tour around the airfield during which time I was given a brief history of the field.
Also the Club hangar was opened which produced 9 gliders 8 of which was needed.
G-CHJE ;D CHNA ;D CJOS ;D CJRJ CKHW ;D CKRB ;D DCFF ;D DDNJ ;D and DEDJ ;D
There were another 15 or so boxes which were locked and following a handshake I was told I would be quite welcome to visit again hopefully when there would be some flying.
So 8 out of 9 isn't a bad haul.
Happy Days
