Thirsty Thursday

 Joe waits at launch as Pete H performs one of his super landings

 Martin J gets his Asymmetric collapses done

Pete H celebrates his EPC tasks and first high flight

Another nice day forecast and another day in the field planned. heading the fuel station on the way to fill the winch resulted in a long wait as nearly everyone had decided to fill up jerry cans, can't understand why !!

With a nice NE wind set in Rodney started procedures on his Paramotor having carried out further adjustments but to no avail still no joy in getting into the harness but the rest of the flying was good.

Martin J (Plymouth) and Pete H (Tavistock) were both back and were joined by Joe H (Helston) all  on paras.  With the wind filling and easing through the day the guys played with both towing and ground handling as conditions dictated.

Pete H had a cracking day with things "falling" into place and both his flying on the line and off it improving dramatically.  By the end of the day and with another 8 flights his credit he had completed his EPC flights and made his first high flights and circuit to look a very happy man, well done.

Martin J also made the most of it working through his remaining CPC tasks including his Asymmetrics and taking them all in his stride.  Again his flying on and off the line improved further with him almost looking like a natural. 7 more flights to his tally and only another day or so and he should be ready for the hill. 

Joe had a blinder having missed the early towing and joining us later he timed it well.  With the other guys leaving a little early he stayed on as the wind settled and put in a total of 12 flights seeing him complete all his flying tasks and catching up with a bit of theory on the way.

Cpt Kev made a return to the winch and again good to see him back at the sticks.

Well done to the guys with and EPC and 2 CPC tasks being completed between them.
