Milson is privileged to host the Thames Valley Soaring Association, who kindly organise our public events.

Slope Flying –  Thermal Flying from Winch – Aerotowing

This year’s events were held over the weekends of Friday 14th – 16th June, and 13th-15th September 2024.

Unfortunately both our 2024 events were hampered by bad weather, and consequently attendance was well down on what we have come to expect. Fridays seemed to yield the best conditions on both weekends, with better lift and visibility

Despite the reduced turnout, we still managed to collect over £1000, which together with the match funding from Arqiva, means that the Midlands Air Ambulance Charity has received the grand total of £1517.00 from us, this year. This is the second year we have supported them, after previously raising funds for the County Air Ambulance Helipad Appeal.

Grateful thanks to our regulars, everyone else who contributed, especially Ray Watts, the event organiser and chief tug pilot, as well as Simon and Pat, who also did their fair share of the launches.

Fingers crossed for better weather, and hope to see you all again next year.”
