Karl (Kipper) Millar has already acquired a very smart Thruster Jabiru Sprint which is sitting waiting patiently for him on a landing strip next to his home in the Isle of Man. All he needs is a licence to take it out for a flight.. On 22nd June Karl undertook his final pilgrimage to Newtownards to undertake his GST in Thruster G CGFZ ( almost identical to his own machine). Having successfully completed the GST Karl can now take the ferry back to IOM and reward the patience of his own Thruster. Karl is pictured in a celebratory pose next to FZ . Congratulations Karl

Shortly after starting his flying training Darren Harper decided to buy his own Thruster Sprint in order to complete the course . On 12th June 2024 Darren successfully completed the GST in his Thruster , and if Aaron and the BMAA licencing team perform their normal swift turnaround Darren will have the opportunity to play with the clouds over Northern Ireland in his own aircraft next week.
