Race School is back! Taking place at Popham on the 26th and 27th April 2025, the aim of the Race School is to bring in new pilots and navigators who wish to compete in the British Air Racing series of handicap air races run by The Royal Aero Club Records, Racing and Rallying Association. Any willing participant can attend either day (as each day is identical to the other) to learn about the rules, regulations and techniques involved in air racing. If the participant brings their own aircraft, they will have an opportunity to fly with an experienced race check pilot who will show them race techniques and guide them around a practice race course. The one day event is free to attend. For a pilot to race, they must have at least 100 hours P1 and an aircraft capable of at least 100mph straight and level. Note that owing to advances in handicapping software, racing at 100% power is no longer mandatory and a reduced power setting can now be used.


 

This Race School on the 26th and 27th April 2025 precedes a fantastic line up of race dates and venues which are as follows:


24th/25th May              Sherburn in Elmet

21st/22nd June             Leicester

26th/27th July               Fishburn

23rd/24th August         Enniskillen

27th/28th September  Wellesbourne
