Super Sunday

 Nigel W soars high on his first hill flight whilst Suan checks the breeze

 Happy Nigel back on the ground, pretty chuffed and so he should be :) 

Hangies get ready to fly as we get ready to leave!

With a ferry booked from Dover at 22.00 things were on a time schedule but with such a good day forecast we decided to make the most of it.  Arriving at Perranporth at 08.30 things did not look so good with rain and wind!  However, soon enough the skies cleared the wind settled and whilst a bit breezy for the Paragliders it was spot on for hangies.  After the mandatory demo flight a nervous looking Nigel W  stood on the edge for his first go at hill soaring a Hang Glider.  He need not have worried after a super take off he settled into the flight with sharp turns turning into smoother turns as he cruised the cliffs.  30 minutes later and after a couple of practice runs Nigel came in for a lovely top landing so rounding of a cracking first soaring flight with a big smile :), well done hopefully the first of many.

Next it was up with the Tandem Hang Glider taking Smooth Bob's nephew Kester up for a lovely flight in lovely conditions. We had a fine time playing with the air, chatting, and generally putting life to rights before popping back in on top.

We  must have done something right as Kesters wife Amy then decided to give it a go so after a short rest we were off again in super conditions, despite her nerves Amy had a fab time quickly relaxing into the flight and enjoying every minute of it. Rounding off the day with a super landing and big smiles it was a quick derig including short packing the tandem and off home to finish packing before heading to Dover then across the channel.

Great to see so many hangies out having fun, sorry could not stay to fly with you but hear that all had a fun time:)
