Keeping fit

Reena gets airborne on her Dual flight

cruising past take off before the wind dropped.......

After a wet day things were forecast clear up a little towards evening time so with a couple of Hang Gliding Tandems booked we headed to Perranporth in a positive move. Gliders rigged and things were looking good until more rain arrived and the passengers didn't! Still it wasn't long before it cleared and the wind filled in nicely. Testing the air on the Mars proved it to be good with nice lift up to 300'. After 45 minutes of soaring the passengers arrived so it was time to come down.

Flicking into the Dual Hang Glider we were off again with Reeana on board but as we launched the wind dropped making things a little scratchy. We had a fun flight mixing it with the seagulls gaining enough height to o a low pass over the windsock to get the photographers to duck. 25 minutes later the wind dropped further so we opted for a beach landing which was a beauty coming in like a WW2 bomber.

Then it was the long walk up .................................
