A quick site briefing from the bottom for those that had not been there before then it was off to the top to get going. Conditions were light but everybody took the opportunity to get a settling in flight down and sort out their forward launch and light wind landing techniques. A swift turn around saw us back at the top as things improved a little. The guys launched again with most making a second extended top to bottom whils Michel climbed away to cloudbase to complain of the cold!
Bill made an unexpected landing during a momentary larpe of concentration as he waved to Michel and eneded up in a large bush or small tree depending on your view! Whilst the others played myself Mike and Michel helped Bill out and amazing his glider and lines survived in fine shape so we left hin to sort out the tangles aided by Chrissy.
Gary gets rigging on Montellano
The guys check out what needs checking out at launch
The lift starts to work, wheres Bill gone..........
Classic sky, clasic lift , classic day
Mike set to go and looking up for it
The evening lift mellows and the sky fills with wings
As the sun lowered the evening lift kicked in and the guys flew until they had had their fill, whilst some mixed it with the masses Mike sneaked off to one end nad had a great time exploring lift and his glider before coming back to the landing zone.
Nice to see everyone in the same filed at the end of the day and everyone smiling, great day and a typical Montellano one, more of the same tomorrow ??
Hey Mark, Andy, Simon and Graham who is Peter le Clark ?? as pronouced by a frenchman......
