COME FLY WITH ME Simulators Midlands ...With Flight
When Captain Chris Rigby retired from operational flying 2 years ago, he wondered how he could somehow utilise the flying knowledge that he had acquired over the last 40 years. With over 20,000 flight hours, mainly on the Boeing 737, and having worked for Britannia/Thomsons Airways, British Airways, easyJet and lastly Ryanair, he wanted to find something that would allow him to share that experience with everyone who was interested in flying.
from and the flight is over all too soon. Highly recommended on Trip Advisor, this is an experience not to be missed. New simulators cost over £5million, so these are real boys toys.
Chris, who regularly lectures about aviation on cruise ships around the world and runs Fear of Flying courses, hit on the idea of buying and operating a flight simulator for the general public to live out their dream. He located a real motion simulator, a Boeing 737-800, originally owned by Sabena Airlines of Belgium, that was for sale. This was shipped to Coventry Airport last May and has since then it has had hundreds of wanabee pilots testing their metal in one of the most pressure environments in the world. Just recently a Boeing 747-400, which was one of Aer Lingus’s training machines has been added to the fleet and is now ready for boarding. Most of the instructors at Flight Simulators Midlands are retired airline pilots who have thousands of hours in aircraft of all types and have flown the world. Situated in the hangar of the Coventry Aeroplane Club, would be pilots first have a half hour briefing on how a modern aircraft flies and works. They then make their way past the real aircraft in the hangar before boarding the aircraft of their choice. Their instructor will make sure they are seated comfortably and strapped in and they are off, around the mountains of Salzburg or the skyscrapers of Hong Kong. Guests can choose from a number of different airports, worldwide, to fly to and
Chris is pleased to offer through the Express Advertiser, a Spring offer of a full hours flight for the price of 30 minutes. Please mention this article when ringing to book or get a gift voucher for the pilot of your dreams.
Chris told the Advertiser that many professional pilots have visited FSM to brush up their skills before going for interviews with airlines and all have been successful so far. Chris’s Fear of Flying courses, held at the company’s offices at Coventry Airport also include a quick flight in one of the simulators. They have helped many frightened fliers back into the air and anyone wanting help to overcome their fear can contact Chris through Flight Simulators Midlands.
2 observers permitted in each simulator free of charge. Wheelchair access to the 747 for flying or watching. Minimum age for flying 14. See website T&C’s for other age restrictions.

Balance is the body’s ability to maintain an upright posture over its base of support. In order to balance well the brain needs to receive input from three different systems, process it and then send output to the muscles and eyes.
DIZZINESS AND BALANCE PROBLEMS Input to the brain Visual System - The eyes give information about where we are in relation to the environment, how we are orientated in relation to objects and also how we are orientated in relation to vertical. It is important that the eyes stay stable when we are moving. Imagine a video taken by someone who is walking or running – the image bounces around, it would be very disorientating if this was to happen as we walked! Proprioception - This is the input from receptors in the muscles, skin and joints; they send information to the brain through sensing pressure and stretch. It gives the brain a picture of where each body part is and how it is moving. Vestibular System - This is in the inner ear. It is a tiny structure encased in the bone of the skull that picks up acceleration and deceleration. It has three semicircular canals positioned at right angles to each other to detect angular movements, a structure called the utricle to detect horizontal movement and a saccule to detect vertical movement. Together the right and left vestibular systems send very precise information to the brain. All of this sensory information is integrated and processed according to what the brain has already learned about movement. If we look at small children and babies as they learn to move and find their balance we can see how their systems adapt and learn with the new challenges and that over time the movements become automatic, needing less thought and concentration. If the input is conflicting the brain tries to make sense of what is happening. For example, when we are sitting on a train in a station looking at a train next to us and the other train
starts to move we can get a sense that we are moving. What happens here is that our eyes see the movement, so there is an assumption that we are moving. However our vestibular systems and proprioceptive systems don’t detect movement so the brain very quickly over rides the sensation of moving.
Output from the brain As all the sensory information is integrated the brain sends messages to the muscles and eyes to make sure that we stay balanced and we can see what is going on around us.
Output to the eyes - Signals from the vestibular system drive the eye muscles to co-ordinate eye movements with head movements; this is the vestibulo-occular reflex. If we are looking at an object and move our heads to the left, our eyes automatically move to the right to make sure we continue to focus on the object. Output to the muscles - The brain sends information to the muscles to ensure we stay balanced. If we start to fall our eyes tell us that we are not properly lined up with our environment and vertical, our vestibular system tells us that our head is moving, our proprioceptive feedback tells us that some movement has happened in the body. All of this information is received and processed very quickly so that the brain can tell the muscles to do something about it. If we have shifted a little bit forwards the muscles in the backs of our legs will be activated to shift us back again. If we have shifted a lot the muscles in our legs will be activated to step to stop us from falling on the floor. What happens when it goes wrong? There is an element of compensation within the systems.
www.express-press.co.uk t:01926 815935
People who can’t see can still balance as their brain adapts to work just with the vestibular and proprioceptive systems. The brain tends to listen to the Neurological and Stroke vestibular system over the other two so it will usually override them. This means that if the vestibular system Physiotherapy isn’t working we can get sensations of dizziness (feelingNeurological and Stroke Specialist Physiotherapist in stroke, neurology light headed or faint), or vertigo (a spinning sensation with Physiotherapy and elderly rehabilitation perception of movement). • Stroke • Sometimes a small problem in one system is • Multiple Sclerosis • compounded by a small problem in another system.

Treatment The good news is that a lot of vestibular problems are treatable and can be improved, or in some cases, completely cured. It is important to have a thorough assessment of dizziness to properly diagnose the root of the problem; it is not always caused by a problem with the vestibular system and could be neurological, cardiovascular, visual or psychological in origin. It is not possible to treat without knowing the cause. Vestibular Rehabilitation is exercises that are designed to get the nervous system to compensate for any deficits in the vestibular system. They can be very effective in reducing or eliminating the impact of the deficits. The exercises aim firstly reduce the visual symptoms and dizziness, then increase balance and ability to walk and finally they aim to increase activity levels. How can a neurological physiotherapist help? With their advanced understanding of the control of movement and balance a neurological physiotherapist is perfectly placed to treat balance problems and people who fall. Many neurological physiotherapists have had additional training in dizziness and vestibular dysfunction. A physiotherapist with the right skills is able to carry out a comprehensive assessment of the balance systems and tailor treatment according to which system or systems are not working. Emma has a lot of experience in treating balance problems and has undertaken some training in vestibular dysfunction. If you would like to know more, or think that Emma might be able to help you or a relative with balance problems please get in touch with her.

ummer’s coming and if the thought of wearing shorts and showing your legs fills you with dread, take heart. There are treatments that can dramatically improve the appearance of unsightly thread veins on your legs and face. What are thread veins? Thread veins are tiny blood vessels which run close to the surface of the skin and look like fine red,
or sometimes purple, wiggly lines. They’re also sometimes called ‘spider veins’ or ‘broken veins’. The medical term for them is
Banish those unslightly THREAD VEINS this Summer!
telangiectasia.
What causes them? Usually there’s no obvious cause. Thread veins tend to develop as we age and our skin and blood vessels
become less elastic. Hormonal changes associated with pregnancy and the menopause are thought to provoke their development - the reason why women are more prone to them than men. You can also inherit a family tendency to the problem. Other causes include too much sunbathing, exposure to wind or extreme temperatures. Jobs that involve prolonged standing may aggravate the condition, but they don’t actually cause it. Although you may not like the look of them, thread veins aren’t dangerous, but they tend to become larger and increase in number over time.
Who gets them? Nearly all of us as we age. Around one in five
women in their 20s have thread veins, a figure that rises to around half by the age of forty and continues to increase. By the age of 70 over 70 per cent of women have some thread veins.
How are they treated? Our Nd-Yag laser emits a light which is absorbed by the blood vessels, heating them instantly to a point
where they are destroyed. Following treatment the vessels quickly clear as they are reabsorbed by the body, leaving little or no trace of the original redness.
Is the treatment painful? It shouldn’t be. Although laser
destroys tissue by heat you won’t feel any burning or pain. Each pulse is less than a thousandth of a second and the laser only works on the unwanted vein leaving other skin untouched. The sensation of a laser is often described as similar to a rubber band pinging against your skin. Treatments normally last for around 10 to 40 minutes.
How many treatments are needed? On average one to three,
but more may be necessary, depending on the number of veins and their size and location. Start now if you want better looking legs this summer.
What about treatment for broken veins on the face?
Laser can treat the fine veins that can appear on the nose, cheeks and chin and it’s usually very successful. Often thread veins on the face are part of a condition called rosacea.
What does it cost?

The past few months have been a busy exciting times here at LoveBallet Dance Company. We had 5 pupils audition (Aidan Lesingham, Nadia Lesingham, Izzy Holloway, Ella Stephenson and Isla Johnson and all 5 were successfully awarded a place with the Regional Youth Ballet to perform Les Sylphides at the Mill in Banbury from the 24th – 26th May. It involved some intense training which the pupils thoroughly enjoyed the challenges of and their performance was spectacular on stage. Following that audition, 2 pupils Aidan Lesingham and Phoebe Willetts auditioned for the English Youth Ballet (part of the English National Ballet) performance of Swan Lake, which will take place in Oxford in September this year. There was a lot of competition for places, with over 140 auditioning for only 50 places. Both LoveBallet pupils were awarded places and will be performing with a professional dancer from the English National Ballet, what an experience that will be!

the builder, carpenter, plumber, So,electrician, tiler and decorator are booked.
You have spent days visiting showrooms trawling through the vast array of product, but finally have everything ordered at the lowest prices off the internet. Your bathroom project is ready to start. Then you discover that one of the walls need replastering which means that you have to wait for the plasterer, and then allow the wall to dry before it can be tiled – the tiler is booked on another job and won’t be available for a month – then the plumber isn’t available and so it goes on. To add to the stress, the taps you ordered are for high pressure only, the towel rail is the wrong colour, and the shower cubicle isn’t quite going to fit. All this and you have your own life to manage. An extreme scenario maybe, but a new bathroom can be a logistical minefield. One local firm, Eau Bathrooms, recognises this and has built a successful business ensuring that the
project is fully managed and coordinated. Eau offers an entirely bespoke service providing high specification bathrooms ranging from the traditional to the ultra modern – they really do all the work for you in achieving a bathroom that meets your expectations. Each bathroom project is unique and tailored to the client’s requirements – there are no off the shelf solutions here! Every step of the process is handled by Eau from 3D virtual design, product sourcing and supply, the building, plumbing, lighting, electrics, tiling, flooring, heating and final decoration. If necessary, they can even extend or alter your property to maximise space and improve the design of the bathroom and handle any tricky areas such as dealing with structural engineers, building control and planning departments. Eau aims to bring a fresh approach to building projects providing a personal and professional service using their
eau ≈
own small and highly experienced team. Eau’s recent clients include those with clear ideas about their requirements, as well as many who are looking for new ideas and inspiration. What they all have in common is total satisfaction at the end of the project and the enjoyment of a bathroom that meets their individual needs. Why not ask one of the team to visit? A designer will come to your home to discuss the project with you, to find out what sort of look you wish to achieve and will give you an indication of costs. Should you wish to take the project further then Eau will be delighted to provide you with a selection of designs and products to suit your style and budget and then ultimately see the project through to completion.

BLOCK PAVING...
BEAUTIFUL, PRACTICAL, AFFORDABLE ...What are you waiting for? There is something extremely appealing and neat about a block paved garden or driveway. With such a wide range of styles, types, colours and sizes of block pavers there are also many design possibilities to suit every property type. Block paving is considered for most to be more attractive than basic, plain tarmacadam surfaces for driveways. It can be relatively inexpensive if you choose the basic rectangular blocks. One major block paving manufacturer estimates the costs as being split 20% blocks, 80% labour, hard core and sand. Basic blocks can be purchased from £8 or £10 per square metre up to over £25 per metre, so overall costs should be between £50 and £100+ per metre. However, complex patterns and additional items such as edging, steps and drainage can be added to these figures. Individual blocks can be lifted and replaced if they are damaged, or stained with oil, diesel or petrol spillages. Because block pavers are manufactured rather than cut from natural stone, block sizes tend to be very accurate and uniform. No specialist machinery is required (as there is with tarmacadam surfaces) hence small areas should not necessarily be
proportionately more expensive per square tre, as when there are high setup costs. Concrete block paving is cost effec tive when compared to clay pavers or natural stone blocks such as granite setts. Block paving is suitable for both domestic and commercial applications. Telephone A.J. Blockpaving on 01926 815717 or 07778 994503 for your free quotation today!
