Eep! At first glance, that looked more like "final resting place"...

Andrew,

From your series it appears Camphill has a nice collection of "Vintage" and "Classic" sailplanes. Do you fly there, or were you just visiting?

Wayne,

I don't fly unfortunately, though at some time in the future they may be
able to tempt me into a trial gliding lesson.

I care for my elderly mother who likes the car ride out (about 50 mile round
trip) to a pub fairly near by for lunch during the week and we often call
into the visitors viewing area for a few minutes on the way back home. I
find it very hard to pass within five miles of anything aviation orientated
without calling in.

They have a web site at http://www.dlgc.org.uk/ which is pretty informative.

The longish lens and the tall grass in the foreground makes it look rather
hectic. I also notice that they seem to be set one pointing one way and the
next in line pointing the other way, maybe there is a reason for this or
maybe not.
