I arrived on Saturday mid-afternoon, after work, to find the team comfortably established on the heath in the north easterly breeze. I watched the six person team going through their paces with confidence led by Mark and David.

On Sunday we were eight and again Mark and David took advantage of the favourable, though occasionally blustery breeze, first on the Rev 1s, later the 1.5s to work through the recently developed repertoire.

Towards the end of the afternoon a sixteen person mega team with The Decs, The Flying Squad, Maggie and Chris led by David Ellison showed off some dynamic flying to the appreciative Blackheath audience.

As Blackheath is The Decs 'home ground' we were invited to take the final arena spot.

It will feel very empty on Blackheath next weekend...
