    A BRANCH OF THE LIGHT AIRCRAFT ASSOCIATION PROMOTING RECREATIONAL AVIATION IN THE SOUTHWEST www.devonstrut.co.uk DEVON STRUT NEWS – November 2010 Co-ordinator’s Comments by Steve Robson The leaves are falling and we’ve had our first taste of frost this autumn. Darker days, water logged fields and numb fingers from working in cold hangars, doing all those little jobs we said we’ve leave until after the season are things to look forward to, but enough gloom! We can also look forward to bright cold days with gin clear visibility; Strut Scrambles and monthly meetings when we can get together socially. We hope to have some new destinations for Scrambles this year, so winter isn’t all bad! I’m starting to get to grips with my new mount, an RV4 but I still have a great deal to learn and I’m certainly enjoying that process. Starting out with a new aircraft feels like walking out with you shoes on the wrong feet. It’s all there, but doesn’t feel quite right, certainly compared to my dear comfortable and familiar Condor. The prospect of meeting the ground at 140kts is something I want to avoid, so safety is fundamental to my approach as I learn some new skills and relearn others. This has caused me to re- examine the way I do things and as I’m going back over procedures and checklists, I have discovered that familiarity can breed contempt. So, what’s the point of all this? For me it was to realise that taking things for granted and getting stuck in old habits without stepping back and thinking about them from time to time, may have serious consequences.

    ACES WILD ACES WILD The Story of the British Grand Prix THE STORY OF THE Peter Miller Motor racing is one of the most 10. 3. BRITISH GRAND PRIX exacting and dangerous sports in the world today. And Grand Prix racing for Formula 1 single-seater cars is the RIX GREATS toughest of them all. The ultimate ambition of every racing driver since 1950, when the com­ petition was first introduced, has been to be crowned as 'World Cham­ pion'. In this, his fourth book, author Peter Miller looks into the back­ ground of just one of the annual qualifying rounds-the British Grand Prix-which go to make up the elusive title. Although by no means the oldest motor race on the English sporting calendar, the British Grand Prix has become recognised as an epic and invariably dramatic event, since its inception at Silverstone, Northants, on October 2nd, 1948. Since gaining World Championship status in May, 1950 — it was in fact the very first event in the Drivers' Championships of the W orld-this race has captured the interest not only of racing enthusiasts, LOONS but also of the man in the street. It has been said that the supreme test of the courage, skill and virtuosity of a Grand Prix driver is to w in the Monaco Grand Prix through the narrow streets of Monte Carlo and the German Grand Prix at the notorious Nürburgring.
