Instability

Actually it was not that bad although there was some lift around as the sea breeze kicked in but instability was to follow as Stuart C worked his way through his final tasks on his Paragliding CPC.

Stuart was joined by Henry G (Truro) and Jeremy S (Taunton) both on the hangy with Henry coming back for his second day after a long break and Jeremy starting from scratch.  Whilst I got Jeremy going on the ground work Kaz did some theory with Stuart and Triston J (Torquay) had some more fun flying on his Paramotor.

nice in flight position

and a nice landing to round it off 

Jeremy at 17 just soaked it up and seemed to have a never ending supply of energy which soon saw him ready for the winch.  Henery joined us after lunch along with John R who came by to keep his hand in on the Paramotor.

Just what Stuart needed :)

With the winch up and running Stuart cracked on with his remaing tasks seeing speed bar, big ears and Asymmetrics soon out of the way before having some more relaxed flying.  Henry quickly got back into the swing of things and moved deeper into the CPC tasks with higher releases and gentle turns. Jeremy never stopped and was soon off tethers and even moving into release flights by the end of the day having put away no less than 15 tows, nearly as many as JIm did a few days ago, but this was Jeremy's first day!

John R had a couple of fine flights on the Paramotor looking more confident and even like he was enjoying it so ready to have another go on his own kit.

Yep another super day and long may it continue, good to see the hangies at it it seems each week we pick up another one!
