macey2kk Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 anyone up for this course?, or is there one coming up soon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 At some point between the 25th Oct and the 2nd Nov Or up to 9th Nov if oversubscribed. SIV instructor is "Butterfly" (Dave Botha) ex Airwave Test Pilot and Comp. This guy invented SIV at Babadag before anyone else knew about it. Access is RyanAir to Bergamo or Brescia from Stanstead, Bristol, Bournmouth. I got my flight for £47! I am flying out on the 23rd with a mate to organise the accomodation and airport transfers. The course is per day but there is also "Thermal Flying" and "Intro to Mountains" tuition in the same week(s). see Italia Dolomiti thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Butterfly Dave 'Botha' Is without doubt a very very very good person for teaching you anything! He is a top PG pilot who has the max possible respect from one of the people I respect the most. nuff said. SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
