	Matt Church (PG) 1600 hours (PG). Used to be the youngster of the club when I started flying in 1998, but seem to be more middle-aged now. Flown all the sites and can be found on the hill most days for half the year. Other times I'm either flying abroad or working offshore (occasionally). I'll talk to any paraglider pilot and will even hold on to the nose wire of a hang glider. Note: I have a girlfriend called Lu who can be bribed with alcohol to act as recovery driver.
