When fruit turns nasty

What a fine day it was for hangies at Perranporth with a steady 22-24 mph breeze all dayand the wind pretty much smack on the nose.


Geoff B was down from Devon to have a crack at his Dual (Tandem )rating on a hangy making it a fun day for me......After a nice flight as passenger with myself where geoff got the chance to fly the glider and experience whar passengers experience it was role reversal and my turn to sweat.

I need not have worried although geoffs first flight as pilot in command was a little tense he soon relaxed and over the next five flights he became "one" with the wing. It got to the point whre even I relaxed too and nearly stopped talking! Nice one Geoff and well done now go and have fun with your girlfriend !!!!!!!

Whilst the Tandem was out we sneaked in a couple of flights with Adi C and Ray M both frustrated Paraglider pilots who had a funtime finding oput how the other half do it.

Nice to see Sam A put in an appearance and do a fine flight on his hangy as he builds the airtime after qualifying a month or two ago. Also good to see Paul, Gay and Carez making use of the surperb conditions.

Lovely sand crop circles on the beach and a discussion on things to shoot added to an already interesting day, sorry no photos flat battery. Hope Primal scream were good Jackie and Simon.
