Sunday at Sennen


A day away from the field and it was off to  Sennen Cove where a moderate NW breeze was forecast. After a morning of paperwork we arrived just after lunch to find it light and scratchy and well off to the west.  Some had been flying earlier and it was good to catch up with Carl R and Steve L  who both had super flights and now building their hours nicely having fledged a few weeks ago.

A little wait and things began to improve a bit but not enough for Carl and Steve to decide to head back to Perran on their way home.  I popped in a little flight and then no sooner had they left than the wind came on and filled and all was good allowing flying from the far left right around to Gwenver and back, ideal.


talk about being relaxed, Jenny waits to take off ...


Jenny D arrived ready for a Tandem flight on the Paraglider and we were soon clipped in a ready to go.  We had a nice flight all be it in by now less lift conditions and plenty of time to chat as we floated above the beach and discussed life in general, boy you meet some interesting people in this sport.


Up and away the Tandem climbs out

With Jenny safely back down it was time for a rest and a coffee and by the time that had cooled the breeze had returned to give some super evening flying in classic conditions.

Alistair who had come along to watch kindly packed the Tandem acting as a small nursery for a number of young children who came to watch him, could have made a few quid there I think!

Quote of the day "you should have been here earlier"  how many times have you heard that one! as it turned out "you should have stayed here later;)"
