What a nice day it was and after a brief visit to Perranporth where the wind was well off to the south we headed over to chapel porth where it was smack on. Catching it just right we wasted no time in rigging the tandem hanger and in what seemed like no time at all Christine M (Bristol) was up and away for her flight that was bought as a birthday gift by her children. Chris had a great time as we cruised the cliffs with the seagulls and watched the waves far below. A sweet landing rounded off her flight and it was big smiles all round, thanks guys.
Chris P (Scotland) was also down on holiday and took the opportunity to get himself assessed on his paraglider and into the system. We put him through his flying instability tasks and the CPC exam to make sure and to tick the boxes then Chris enjoyed the rest of the day flying as a qualified pilot. having met Chris at the BOS series and him winning the club class it was no great surprise that he was on the ball.
After some fun flying on the Delta which made easy work of flying to Porthtowan and back and then topping out in some weird lift it was back to work as the tide receded and Karen M (Bristol) arrived. Karen popped in a super soaring flight as both conditions and beach joined forces to get her only a couple of flights from finishing her Hill conversion. Despite having not flown for 6 months she made it look easy and did a near perfect landing back on top.
Mixed in with helping Jerry on his tandem get him and his son jack into the air it was a fun day and great to see Jack enjoying himself with his dad as we left the site .
