SLOPE 1; Southern Slope Soaring Weekend 2024

The event takes place over three days, Friday-Sunday, 24th-26th May 2024 and may be located at various different slope sites within the beautiful Wiltshire countryside surrounding Devizes. Specific flying locations will be selected on a day-by-day basis depending on weather conditions.  The event aims to be as inclusive as possible with all experience levels and disciplines welcome.

The emphasis is on flying, having a laugh together, positivity and not taking ourselves too seriously so please leave your negative vibes at home-we get enough of that at work and in the news.

Members are requested to rendezvous in the Subway lounge adjacent to the Devizes travelodge  (SN10 2HL) at 10:00 sharp on the first day of the event. You will require your own transport to "convoy" onto whichever flying site is selected. Tickets for the event are free of charge to RAFMAA members but should be reserved by clicking the RSVP link below so that we have an idea of numbers and no-one is left behind. Cold and wet weather gear is a must along with a decent pair of walking boots for those inevitable retrieval moments!

Accommodation is available at extra cost at the Devizes Travelodge HERE but must be booked separately. Please book early to avoid disappointment.

We hope as many of you as possible will join us and we look forward to seeing you there.
