Back to the field after a few days on the hill and what a nice field it is, freshly cut almost good enough to play bowls on. Neil (Yorkshire) and Jo (Falmouth) (father and son) were along for a Taster day on the Hang Glider along with Caroline P (Looe) who was continuing her EPC.
Fiona A (Torrington) was out with a Paraglider after her Taster day a week or two ago to start her training along with hubby Graham who was up for some Hang Gliding as he nears the end of his CPC.
We got the Taster days going early and by just after lunch they were ready for the winch. Joe was first up and did a fine job with the moon walking before getting airborne for the first time. Neil followed suit and by the end of the day they had both put in some super flights (and landings). They both were well pleased with their progress, which never ceases to amaze me (most of the time), and went away looking forward to coming back sometime to do some more.
Fiona A meantime had been at the ground handling with the Paraglider and had progressed nicely making the reverse inflation's look easy and keeping the wing in the air for ever increasing periods. With weather on the decline Caroline P managed a couple of flights in the Hang Glider before the rain arrived so calling a halt to proceedings. Still a useful day with quite a bit fitted into quite a small slot.
Sorry, you just had to be there to appreciate the title
