Ducking and diving in Derbyshire

The 2nd to the 6th saw us in Derbyshire for the second round of the British Open Series (Hang Gliding) where we had a fun time.  Flying was to be had on four days out of the five and tasks were set on two of them so something for everyone.  despite being well off the mark with my decision making I had some nice flying and the unusual problem of struggling to stay low, less than 4,500' to keep out of airspace!

Great to see Wayne T  win his first ever task on his shiny new Wills Wing T2 C 154 and great to see just how big a smile it gave him :)  We had abrisk trade in Parachutes as pilots wake up to the fact that a lot of the kit out there is a bit on the small side and some of it a lot on the old side......

Next and final round in August in mid wales and will try to get my thinking head on by then.
