Not wanting to rest on his laurels he followed this with a week with the Black Mountains Gliding Club at Talgarth in Wales, organised by Seahawk GC at Culdrose.
In three and a half days flying, (Thursday was unflyable due to wind strength and direction) Martin managed over 15 hours aloft: 6 hours dual and 9+ hours solo,
Not all went to plan as the picture shows when, after a mere 11kms cross country on the southern ridge, he was forced to make a field landing near Treteower whilst flying the Talgarth Pirat.
