Description:
Bringing together people that are interested in flying trikes, whether you be unqualified, recently qualified or are an experenced pilot. This is the group that will enable all abilities to share their knowledge and experience and in doing so create a space where there is no such thing as a stupid question. Training pilots can use this group to raise queries around training and equipment etc. and learn from those who have been there, done that and have the 'T' shirt to prove it.
