Last weekend was DMFC ’S second annual Slope Fest on the slopes of the Sperrin mountain at Slieve Gallion. This event attracked 24 pilots! that’s alot when you count how small our wee country is. We had pilots from all over the provence and from the South of Ireland a big thanks to all that attended and made this a special festival of slope flying.

The weather over the 2 days was extreme ! Saturdays weather saw strong winds from the North West with baltic cold hail and sleet showers but with 18 pilots on the slope it didnot put them off flying and have fun. (more…)
