Fantastic day out at Rhossili Bay on my Bobcat 13.5 Wind was howling at the top, guessing about 25mph+ but it was like glass coming in off the sea! Loads of paragliders on the lower dune having fun! This is the first part of the days flying but unfortunately my camera turned off for the second part of the day when i started practicing barrel rolls! No there yet but it was a start managing to get the wing about 20 degrees below the horizontal. Will take spare batteries next time! Stunning day!

  • Dan, what I meant was that you fly intuitively and instinctively; most of the girl pilots that I know fly better than me so it was meant as a compliment!!

  • I know mate. Your not such a shabby pilot yourself :-) Im off to Chamonix Saturday, hope to got the weather gods play ball and let us fly the mountains!!!

  • See you are still flying like a girl Dan!!!!

  • Yes Norris i cant help myself . I should get in to XC like the real men.......... ;-)

  • WOW ---that looks fun and scary!

  • superb flying! you know you'll regret it if you sell your wing. I've yet to fly Rhossili, something to look forward to!

  • I'm 57 and registered disabled so you can't use that as an excuse, fitness is only really an issue with getting to take off points, the rest is technique, skill and understanding - you only live once and riding the wind you're really living life to the max! Have a close look at my posts and you'll see me flying with a broken leg, so get yourself to your nearest flying school and live the dream!

  • Fantastic Oeden!!! .. i went to Rhossili yesterday ( never been there before), the scenery is stunning, If i wasnt a 51 year old with aching limbs i'd be out there with you. Can u tell me what the track is .. i used to have it on an old mp3player, i've forgotton who sang it.

    KEEP THAT BOBCAT FLYING!!!
