High Flights and Bottom Landings

After yesterdays fun it was great to get straight back into the field for another day.  We opted to go in to the "bird seed" field as the wind was forecast ENE and hopefully we could tow through the gate.

Colin in a fine stance

nice launch

"oh that feels so good" not sure who said it!

Sods law it went ESE but still gave a good tow for the guys and gal.  Whilst Colin honed his skills ready for the hill along with practicing a few tasks again Bev carried on through her CPC tasks  and did a great job of it. Popping in Speed bar, Big Ears and some cracking assymmetrics along the way. well done on finishing off the tasks just a bit of work on landings and we should be there.

Loi off and away

and back again and again and again .........

 Loi had a ball on the hangy cracking prone flights before moving onto slow flight appreciation and stalls to complete his CPC tasks as well as some superb spot landings, nice.

Bev sets off to the top for .....

 ...a nice big asymmetric tuck task

Peachy helped out with the tow lines and did an impression of Steve Mc Queen before being talked into going flying by Phil l who was making mischief.  It was great to see him back on the tow line and fun to watch him struggle with the different handling of the Elements!  No PRD display though.

The great Escape

The look of fear

The last tows of the day came good as the wind did what it should have and we lined up through the gate giving everyone a cracking flight to round off with.
