And we had it in the field on what turned out to be a cracking day. Sadly some of last weeks students could not make it but that played well for those that could!
With a slightly delayed start students turned up at various times but by mid day we were fully underway. Saun S (Penzance) was keen as mustard and got straight into his PLF practice but a combination of over enthusiasm and the previous days Yoga resulted in a painful muscle so he decided not to push a point and after a spot of ground handling gave it a rest.
Tristan J (Torquay) made full use of the now even quieter day and after a ground handling session was soon on the tow line rattling off 13 tows and finishing off the day with his first flight to the top which resulted in a huge grin ;)) With his EPC flying tasks behind him and only a couple more high flights to go he will soon be strapping the Paramotor to his back so watch this space.
Angela I made a late start but worked nicely on some ground handling before joining Tristan on the tow lines and popped in 6 tows taking her to the end of her EPC (congratulations) and ready to go to the top on her next day out. Despite a few nerves she progressed well through the day with each flight getting smoother and more controlled, nice.
Good to see Phil L and Steve W drop by on their way back from flying at Carbis where there was plenty going on by the sound of it.
Quote of the day "what time is the train?"
