Afternoon Delight and a pair of Peaches

A pretty miserable morning soon gave way to a brighter afternoon as the front passed by and with a NNW breeze and the sun coming out it was off to Sennen Cove for some Tandem flying.

Gareth and Amy were down from Wales for a few days staying at Lamorna cove (very nice) and took the opportunity to get up into the air at one of our most scenic sites.  On arrival it looked windy enough for the hanger so we rigged it smartly but by the time we had finished it was more like Paragliding weather, lucky we can do both!


Peachy tests the air 

Gareth was first up  and with a little help from Peachy who tested the air on his mini wing we were soon away having the ridge to ourselves, oh i love it when it is so quiet ;)  Gareth soon overcame his nerves and it was not long before he took control of the glider as we soared over Sennen village with a crystal clear view all the way out to the Scilly Islands.  A few 360's and a bit of play then we popped back in on top for a fine landing.

The wind was still a little breeezy for Amy who weighs next to nothing so Rob P Peachys brother took the opportunity to have a fly whilst we waited to see which way the weather would go.  Rob loved it and was soon appreciating just why Tony does it and what he gets out of it as we played in the sky.  Yep Rob had a go at flying and have to say watch out Peachy he could be a natural!


Inbound with Rob

Back on top and things mellowed a bit so it was Amy's turn.  The guys helped us off and we soon climbed out into the blue for another cracking flight. Amy spent most of the time with her arms out streched flying like a bird and saying just how amazing it all was.  With some good video footage from the GoPro it was a very happy couple that were reunited back on terra firma as the evening set in.


That says it all


What's more got home in time for tea :))
