fantastic report there john, this is what is great about the message board. i must say that it took my a long tine on sunday befor i was happy with my height to jump to the back ridge as i couldsee all the pottential problems of rotor if i was not. mind once at the bowl it was pretty lifty on the wa...

well all i can say is get out of bed make a choice and go,as you will never no if you are not there. for us today started off with a quite fresh and lumpy air so landed for a while to see how the wing got on. when it came on the wind did keep on changing direction but was always quite smooth. first ...

awsome to say the least, first time i have flown cross fell properly and ended up with a nice out and return. very interesting towards the end as it took 3 big ears 3 spirals with up 17ms and still couldnt get down.5 of us on cross fell all doing realy well and enjoying a good fly arround. i just ho...

well looks like the wind is turning already and i think cross fell is worth a look by 1 ocklock i have to be back in good time so going to leave my house at 10.30-11 so if you are coming give me a buzz at home 01670354266

looking at the forcast it looks like later on tommorow the wind is going to be light se with full sunshine. so ask yourself is it worth getting out for a drive and a coffee if all else fails?

anyone up for it let me no tonitr or in the morning

yes i will show my garmin gps 76csx which has full airmaps and topo maps but i rarely use it as i no where i am going befor i go so i tend not to bother using it. once i am flying i fly watch and listen and tend not to spend much time on my equipment unless i have to. after all you are flying the ai...

been looking at my flight log and would be interested to weather or not this flight would qualify for a fia triangle?

some great flying today in some very light winds with some nice light thermic conditions. and yes it is only febuary after all. paul was doing some good flying today an this cold and perfect day. i just hope the weather breaks so that i can focus on my work, but sometimes you have to be on the hill ...

do i or dont i make the border

well i am considering the ones in september as i believe the weather may be better. sounds like good fun and the fact of water beneeth makes it seem so much easier as there one thing dying but at least drowning doent hurt. so they say anyway.
