Friday is normally our day off but with a nice moderate WSW breeze and plenty of sunshine we decided to nip out to Chapel Porth and meet up with Kate and Jo again to hopefully get Kate a flight on the Hangy.
Big G was already in the air when we arrived on his Hangy, a good sign so it was off with the Tandem and a quick rig. By the time it was sorted Big G had landed and the moderate breeze went to a light one. Kaz went back to the truck and got her Paraglider out which by the time she launched was only just going forward, looking promising then.
Kaz lands, Big G takes off and we join him on the Tandem as conditions improve. Kaz gets in a spot of stall turn training
then we spot Kate and Jo walking towards take off so nip in to meet them.
Launch on the tandem
The wind continues to fill and by the time Kate is sorted it is classic and we step off into super smooth lift and climb away above the Old Engine house. What a super flight, with great views, plenty of lift and Kate getting a chance to fly the glider and doing a good job of it too. It is always good to play with the seagulls and they were in a playful mood so making it even more fun.
