The World Record setting Pilot Lisa Trotter has conquered some of gliding’s toughest achievements. Lisa’s historic ten hour flight in December 2013 broke a total of 31 world, national and continental records. Her exemplary work is inspiration to all of us. Lisa says her enthusiasm for gliding comes from her Dad, who took her on gliding holidays growing up! 😎

Lisa - “My father flew in the World War 2 and continued on as an airline pilot after the war. After more than 40 years of flying power he had a go at gliding and we both did a course together. Now 40 years later I’m still flying gliders and loving it. If I hadn’t been for dad’s flying, I might not have had a chance to have a peek into the world of aviation and realise that I could take part in this fascinating interest. With dad’s support and the familiarity of aviation, I felt confident to take on the many challenges of gliding from going solo to world record flights.” 💖

An amazing pilot Shelly Heinrich treasures the compassion for gliding & aviation that was passed on to her by her Dad, Rob Heinrich 😊

Shelly - ‘My Dad had a passion for flying ever since he saw an impressive Bristol Freighter fly low over his house in New Zealand. He immediately took to the skies and got his licence. The passion soon rubbed onto me to feed my need for adventure and experiencing new things. Loving the outdoors and flying free is a beautiful feeling and I thank my Dad for introducing me to the opportunity to follow your passions in life.The beauty of having an eagle fly on your wing with you, there are no words to describe the tranquility of looking in the eagles eyes right there with you and having that common feeling of being one with nature. Dad and I would fly the Jabiru or the RV7 whenever we visited each other.’ 💖
