Flypast at Humberside in memory of Glen Stewart

A few highlights at Soloflight

SOLOFLIGHT hosted a flypast in September in memory of founder Glen Stewart, who lost his life in 2004 during a training flight. The event marked the first anniversary of his death but also celebrated the announcement of the first ever Glen Stewart Flying Scholarship, which was awarded to 18-year-old Emma Bowater.

Good food, wine and a spot of gambling marked the club’s first European flyout to Reims during a visit to the Lanson Champagne bottling plant. A Bonanza A36, two PA-28s and a Seneca II flew out in June for the two-day visit which included a four-hour guided tour of the facilities. The crew of the Bonanza also squeezed in a stopover in Deauville on the return leg to try their luck at the town’s famous casino.
