Waiting for the wind
I got some physical exercise in carrying the wing back up by which time it was flyable for the Paragliders so sneaked a nice flight in whilst Mark recovered ;)) After his rest it was time to do it all over again so off he went, hmm not quite such a good take off so asking the Paraglider who had decided to rig on launch to move was a good idea, why do they do it ?? Still an acceptable flight down and another landing under his belt Mark was pretty happy as the tide began to come in and the car park fill up.
Yep it's arrived :)
The Tandem gets flying
The wind was nicely on so it was time to Tandem with Alison and Darren (Birmingham) both down on holiday taking advantage of the conditions for a super flight in stunning surroundings. Despite her initial nerves Alison soon settled into the flight and took great delight in checking out the various roof tiles in a bid to select some suitable ones for their home renovation project, ideal. With Darren being somewhat taller than myself I enjoyed a slightly longer flight than him and he did a fine job of staying on his feet to make life easy.
On finals
Alison back down to earth
Conditions just got better and better so Kaz made the most of them whilst with the arrival of Dan H down from Sussex to collect his shiny new Wills Wing U2 160 (test flown yesterday) I introduced him to it and showed him the finer points of rigging. Looking well pleased Dan gave it a float test and all seemed good so we loaded it onto his car and along with wife Lorreta who had enjoyed the views off they went.
Kaz flies in as the car park fills, cracking sky inland ;)))
Flown out and with a few others arriving we took our leave and headed back east, what a super day.
