The Officers of the Midland Gliding Club elected at the AGM on 30th March 2008 are:

Chairman:  Jon Hall (staff, catering, web site, PR, publications)
Vice Chairman: Chris Ellis (marketing, trial lessons)
Treasurer:  Keith Mansell and Peter Claire
Secretary:   Ann Parry

In addition the members of the management committee are

Steve Gunn-Russell : airfield and grounds
Clive Jones: MT and winches
Mike Witton and Alan Reynolds: Buildings and Services
Dominic Haughton: membership recruitment and retention
Paul Stanley : CFI (non voting)

President:   Keith Mansell

There is provision for club members to assist the executive committee in a non-voting capacity by leading working groups or being tasked with specific projects. As this is a members' club, run and managed by the members, any such practical assistance is greatly appreciated. If you have any specific skills or want to help in some way without getting involved in the politics, please let the chairman know. Examples are John and Ann Parry who have successfully edited and produced the newsletters for several years and Nigel Holmes who looks after radios and Derek Platt who looks after the water supply.

The whole committee is re-elected each year at the AGM usually held in March/April. Nominations must be received in the office at least 24 hours before the date of the election. All nominations must be seconded by another member. Both members must be fully paid up at the time of nomination

Officers and committee members can be contacted by phone or email. Details available in the office.

Jon Hall, Chairman
Jon started gliding in 1988 at the age of 38 on a whim without ever having had an interest in aviation. He has been a member of the Long Mynd since 1989 in spite of first living in Chester and now in Bristol. He is also a member of the European Soaring Club at Ontur in Spain.

He has two Diamonds, still seeking that elusive Diamond Height, owning a part share in LS4a G-CHMX better known locally as PZ.

His day job is a strategic planning and design consultant for the heritage industries.

Jon served several terms on the BGA Executive with responsibilities for developing the CyberGlide Simulator and the club visits programme and representing the BGA on the organising committee of the 2005 Junior Worlds Championship. He has been on the MGC Committee for eight years, the last five as Vice Chairman.
