HeadCam Pilot Mark Sykes with a paragliding XC flight In Kent
TakeOff: Thurnham @ 5pm. Landing: Isle of Sheppey - Boris Island ?
Distance: 21.7km. Date: 19th August 2011.
This is a video of the full flight. It starts with a lovely climb out with Tim Pike from the DFHGC club site at Thurnham, then no variations it was a straight line, with a series of clouds one after the other, very nice indeed.
Some epic scenery as I cross over onto the Isle of sheppey - what a view,
then a short wait until Ian Stuart arrives to retrieve myself and Pikey and Dean Hyatt who also landed on the island.

A great day had by all...
Many thanks to Ian Stuart for the retrieve from all of us
Thankyou Ian.

  • Nice one dude, been a few years since I flown here.

    Epic little slope so small but works so well.

  • Incredible movie!

    Thermal is always starting here because of the hill at the start ?
