We recently sent our mobility coach for a respray as it was one of only two coaches left that had it's lines painted on rather than the vinyl we use now.
Once it came back it received our latest logo's and livery as well as some carefully added detailing around the front and rear windows and the headlights to bring it's styling in line with our new Plaxton Leopard.

Typical scene in any British seaside resort. I think he is saying "mine is faster than yours and how about a drag race down the prom"
This was built for a souped-up moblity scooter owned by an elderly customer of ours. Pull a release catch to lower back the tray, and it will stand back up and lock into place as the scooter is loaded on. We dabbled in trailers for a little while, but no longer - it's all trolleys these days!
This couple made me smile. The ladies mobility buggy had run out of battery power so the man had been pushing her along the pavement with his : )
I liked their England bumper stickers as well.
Why are mobility scooters nearly always metallic red?
Big Shout goes out to Mobility Scooter Aficianado Matt Thomas who saw this broken down rider crossing the railway at Hythe, Kent. Sadly every riders nightmare of 'range anxiety' has manifested itself here. I wonder if the owner of the broken down vehicle beckoned this particular lady from the station platform and asked her to push him the rest of the way home. Perhaps he stopped in the tracks and then was stranded, he must have been very worried about getting flattened by a 12 coach train and dying.

En este semestre recibimos a la estudiante Chiara Sangiovanni, procedente de la universidad de Macerata, con la que la EUTL tiene convenio.
Nuestro centro es consciente de la importancia de dotar al profesional del turismo de un perfil internacional, no sólo por el evidente componente idiomático que comporta, sino también, por la influencia positiva que ejerce en el estudiante el intercambio e interrelación con culturas diferentes, tanto a nivel profesional como personal.
Uganda People's Defense Force (UPDF) logisticians load palletized material during a hands-on segment of Uganda ADAPT 2010, a mentoring program conducted in Entebbe, Uganda, that resulted in certifying 25 soldiers as C-130 aircraft load planners.

A U.S. Army Africa (USARAF) organized Africa Deployment Assistance Partnership Team (ADAPT) recently trained, and for the first time ever, certified 25 soldiers of the Uganda People’s Defense Force (UPDF) as C-130 aircraft load planners in Entebbe, Uganda.
A five-person team, led by Gordon Christensen of Army Africa’s G-4 Mobility Division, completed Phase III training with UPDF soldiers Aug. 27 in Entebbe, Uganda, said John Hanson, chief of the G-4 Policy and Programs Branch.
“This was the first actual air load certification we’ve done, of all the previous ADAPT engagements,” Hanson said. “That’s what makes it unique.”
Two weeks of classroom instruction and hands-on training enabled 25 of 31 students to earn U.S. Air Force Air Mobility Command Form 9 certification, significantly augmenting the Uganda land force’s air deployment capability, while developing greater interoperability with U.S. military forces, Hanson said.
The ADAPT program, developed to enhance the force projection capabilities of African militaries, is managed by the USARAF G-4 staff. Its aim is to bridge the gap between limited deployment capacity and the need to provide forces in support of peacekeeping or humanitarian relief operations, Hanson said.
“We’re building capacity for people to deploy, to do their own missions,” he said.
Even when the training doesn’t lead to actual U.S. Air Force certification, as it did this time in Uganda, it contributes to an enhanced deployment capacity for the land force involved, Hanson said.
“That’s the intent. They can’t do the certification, but they can continue to train their own people. Then we back off and they continue to do that,” he said.
The program is a Title 22 tactical logistics engagement funded by the U.S. Department of State, and focuses on African countries that contribute troops to peacekeeping operations, Hanson said.
Training is executed in four installments in order to create a long-term, phased approach to building deployment capacity, Hanson said. Instructors take students from a general orientation to tactical deployment principles to an advanced level of practical proficiency.
Instructors for the UPDF course were sourced using the Request For Forces (RFF) process, Hanson said.
Christensen was accompanied U.S. Army Capt. Jedmund Greene of 21st Theater Support Command’s 16th Sustainment Brigade, based in Kaiserslautern, Germany, and three Air Force noncommissioned officers: Tech. Sgt. Venus Washington, Robbins Air Force Base, Ga.; Tech. Sgt. Byran Quinn, Pope Air Force Base, N.C.; and Senior Master Sgt. Anthony D. Tate of the Illinois Air National Guard.
“The training helped to strengthen the relationship with our Ugandan partners, and also helped them build a self-sustaining deployment capacity,” Greene said. “I hope 21st TSC can increase its support to USARAF logistics theater security cooperation events in the future.”
Army Africa’s G-4 staff is presently working to synchronize ADAPT with the Africa Contingency Operations Training and Assistance (ACOTA) program. A proof of concept joint training was conducted with ACOTA in Rwanda earlier this year, combining tactical- and support-staff training in logistics with the more complex operational techniques of force deployment and mobility, Hanson said.
The Rwanda training demonstrated the feasibility of combining available U.S. government resources to achieve the most efficient and focused effort to advance common foreign policy objectives with U.S. partners in Africa, he said.
To date, ADAPT missions have been funded for eight African countries. Previous training sessions have been conducted in Rwanda, Ghana and Burkina Faso as well as Uganda, and the number is likely to grow in coming years, Hanson said.
“The programs were identified as being of interest to several other countries during the Army Africa Theater Army Security Cooperation Conference, held in Vicenza in August,” Hanson said.
The next planned ADAPT mission is for Phase I training in Botswana, scheduled for the first quarter of 2011, he said.
