"The long wait"

 Dave gets to grips with the Falcon under a nice sky

First launch in 27 years under a very nice sky

 
Congratulations to Dave on getting back into it (still under a very nice sky)

Well actually as it turned an incredibly short one for Dave G (Taunton) who having been out of the sport of Hang Gliding for 27 years gave us a call on Saturday evening about the possibility of getting back into it.  We had a chat, a look at the weather and next thing he knew he was at Sennen Cove at 09.30 on Sunday morning.

Conditions were classic and we wasted no time in getting Dave in the air after a bit of refresh work on the ground.  On the Wills Wing Falcon 195 Daves feet left the ground for the first time on a hangy since 1987 and within a couple of beats he had settled back in.  We had a super day with dave putting in 3 cracking flights and top landings along with some theory catch up and CPC exam. Congratulations on your return Dave  and look out for himm on the hill in Devon and Somerset (and elsewhere).  Oh Jan' thanks for being so patient :)

Meanwhile Kaz , Sam A and Nigel W all had a good time with as much flying as they could take and nice to see everyone landing as sweet as could be, long may it continue.

Guess the guys hada good time at High Cliff and St Agnes as if the sky was half as good as at Sennen they must have done some miles.
