That was amazing!!! I'm hoping to learn in the next six months. Your choice of songs just made the video even better. What alot of fun that looked. Good job on landing cross wind as well. Looked tricky!

Glad you enjoyed the video. It was a fantastic trip and a first Channel crossing in a Microlight for me!

My engine is a Rotax 462, the aircraft hands of speed is 50mph. Total flying time for the outward & return trip was just over 13 hours. We both wore immersion suits, life jackets and carried personal locator beacons for the Channel crossing. The GT450 managed to stay along side me for most of the trip, but we did get seperated on the return journey a couple of times. Brian found it a bit of a strugle to slow his aircraft down to 50mph as the GT450 is designed to cruise much faster.
