A group of Paramania Club Pilots took a trip to Gourdon in France. Most of us flying out on EasyJet
on the 19th September 1999. We stayed in a hotel at either Pont-du-Loup or le Bar-s-Loup. We flew
at above Gourdon, and also did some late evening top to bottoms at Roquebrune landing on the beach.
The weather could have been better, seemingly to cloud over the tops of the hills everyday.
We were guided and advised by Jon Sheppard.
