A great day to fly - Spring has definitely sprung!

A great (but very hazy) day's flying today. Welcome to Student Mark Burns and congratulations to the Mitchinson's who both passed their Aircraft Technical exam this morning. Father Cliff pipped son Shawn by 2% - but a team average of 97% is rather impressive by any standard!

The smile says it all - BMAA examiner Paul Dewhurst congratulates Gary Taylor on achieving his full Flying Instructor Rating

On 12th March son Shaun made solo at MAM Beccles to be followed smartly by his Dad today, 14th. Hearty congratulations to them both. Talk about flying in the family

Congratulations to father and son team Cliff and Shaun Mitchinson. Both passed their Air Law exams with flying colours today and Shaun went solo immediately afterwards!

A lovely smooth afternoon to fly at Beccles. Here's Anthony looking very pleased after applying Mid Anglia Microlight's logo to the C-42

The Fun in Learning to Fly Comes Easier

Mid Anglia Microlights are pleased to announce further benefits for students at their Beccles Flying School.

From today the high standard of flying instruction given by its two experienced instructors is backed up by formal training on the ground. Previously MAM has provided students with the theoretical knowledge to gain most from their time in the air. Now, having gained CAA Approval to set and mark exams, MAM is also in a position to endorse the knowledge base required to obtain a microlight pilot’s licence.

The Ground School is co-located with the Flying School. Lessons and examinations are scheduled or can be one-on-one by arrangement.

In addition MAM is also qualified to inspect and sign licences when due for revalidation. This facility will be welcomed by East Anglian aviators who have mostly had to travel far to find a suitably approved instructor.

For further information please see www.mamicrolight.co.uk

'The Biggles of Beccles'

MAM got a mention in the British Microlight Aircraft association's January e-newsletter. I love how they've described Anthony as 'the Biggles of Beccles' :-)
