Westbury in Wiltshire UK

[cloudsculptor1]

what site is that ?

[MagicIVFR]

Scratching and staying up when all around you are on the ground or heading down gives a great feeling.

Its more of a challenge than staying up on a good / easy day.

You really have to fly and look for the lift. Read the hill, and "see" the wind, just like water in a small stream.

Nice wee film, fly safe :-)

[damunchiman]

Looks like Westbury - Avon UK

[chiefishere]

Yes but it is the only way to rise when there is no thermal. You fly some "8" using the slope wind.

I would LOVE to try Hang Gliding some day.

[flyguy4fun]

were do you live,there may be a school closer than you think. It,s really not all that hard to learn

[peteandurnot]
