At the end of February - Beginning of March 2009, WRAA ran another one of their Foundation license course. This was yet another sizable group, will we ever learn?  9 candidates took part ranging in ages from mid twenties to retirement, so a broad cross section to say the least. Yet again we had candidates coming from all over, one coming from just South of Bristol.

Our First Intermediate Course Is A Huge Success.....

Over the past 12 weeks or so WRAA Instructors have been busy with their very first Intermediate course, this finished with the dreaded examination on Tuesday 16^th December.

The instructors didn’t realise what they were taking on when the course began, not only was it the very first intermediate course that they had run, it was also their largest too; with 17 candidates taking part. Obviously having candidates who were already on the ladder with the Foundation license under their belts was a big help, but dealing with such a large group was a logistical nightmare sometimes.

All that being said, all but one were successful in achieving the required pass rates to gain their Intermediate license, and will soon be heard on the air sporting shiny new 2E0 callsigns. Well done to all of you, and we ook forward to seeing some of you for the Advanced License course in 2009.
