The Players ...

A motley bunch of pilots, which emerged following a chance conversation between Nigel Webb and Roger Stroud, whilst supping Guinness one evening in Cork, Ireland. Whilst the make-up of each expedition has changed over the years, the key qualification being participants should be up for adventure! Family and work commitments have sadly prevented everyone from being part of all trips, but everyone has made their mark!

The Steeds ...

Whether a pressurised twin, a powered-by-vapours tired old hack, or others in between, these steeds have served us proud!
