The Horsham Coaching Week (HCW) is an annual event that occurs in the week prior to Horsham Week. It is designed to develop the skills and experience required for you to fly cross county, both further and faster, and get you ready for Horsham week! Participants vary widely in skill and experience, but as a minimum, you will need a GPC Certificate and endorsement from your CFI (if you don’t yet have a silver C). There are no restrictions at the other end.
The coaching week is intended to take GPC pilots and progress their cross country speed and experience through both two seat coaching and lead and follow tasking for the more experienced.
