Nice :)

 The hangy boys look like they mean business

 Simon L comes back down after completing another CPC task

 Kaz shows Martin how to do Nodding dog, or possibly she just bangs him on the head..

 Joe sets off on his first flight


Looks like they did the business ( who's got muddy knees then )

It was indeed a nice day out in the field despite the wind doing a 180 on us just when we were set up for towing!  Still it settled down and gave some lovely training conditions through the day.

James C and Phil L were back on the hangy hot from Tuesdays success which saw them to the top of the line and now on day four.  Simon L (Plymouth) was back on his fifth day to move into his CPC tasks and Joe H (Helston)  and Martin (Plymouth) were both along for Taster days on the Para's with a view to taking up the sport.

Whilst Joe and Martin got on with the basics in conditions that made them work up a sweat the others cracked on with the flying.  The Hangy boys kept pace with each other and settled into high flights, base bar conversions and prone flying all whilst getting their spot landings and planned approaches sorted along the way.  By the end of the day they were looking pretty sweet and had even had time to take in the views.

Simon L got back in the swing of it and it was good to see his towing improve on the line whilst he worked deep into his CPC tasks off it ending up with Speed bar and Big Ears to his Credit, not long now ...

Mid afternoon saw the Taster Day boys arrive and get their first flights in.  They both did really well with each flight improving and both ending up with near perfect landings and canopy collapses on their final flights.  We wont say which one jumped >>>

A Fun day all round  and big smiles from all, lets see if Joe or Martin return, I think they will.

Quote of the day " All you need is a nice flair ---- oh"
