Two to the Top and a bit of a drag!

These boys are keen, Chris H and Wyn D were ready in the field when we arrived and wasted no time in rigging the Falcon. As they bussed themselves I popped my T2 C  together for some final practice before packing it for shipping Mexico.


How easy is that :)

The winch set and we were ready to roll, a demo flight then Wyn was in the harness and soon polishing off his release flight and tighter turns before heading to the top.  He did a fine job and by the end of play had put away 8 flights and was looking sweet as he converted to the baseball before popping in a nice prone flight.

Chris was not far behindhand also polished off his tighter turns looking much better with the addition of just a little more speed.  Then he was off to the top and just loving it as he turned from passenger to pilot, nice.  Chris rounded off the day by experiencing and line break giving him his first taste of stalling a hang glider, he took it all in his stride and if anything built his confidence as well :)


a bit of light relief .....


..... then back to work ......

In between the guys flying I popped up on the T2 C to practice with a drouge chute and by the end of play was feeling a lot happier should it be needed ................  Kaz and Peachy did a fine job keeping things running and it was nice to see Phil and Adie drop by on their way back from Godrevy so Adie could change his pants :) and Richard K in his pants .......


don't ask
