I'd love to have seen Syerston 64 years ago - with ears reverberating to the sound of dozens of Merlins.

It would be immense! The base (well... what's left of it) has so much character. Sometimes I can just imagine a pair of Lanc's roaring down the runway on a calm summer evening when were putting the gliders away. It's like a little time portal to the past. It's a great place to fly!  :)Here's a brief history of the place

Havent been gliding yet with cadets. I sat in the vigilant once but weather called off the takeoff.

It is until you live and work there! Mind you, for the career beyond it's well worth putting up with!

When I went there the other month I just thought it was great. Maybe times that by the amount of weeks you have to stay there, but it is still a grand ol' place  ;D
