Post by gordie »

Well what can you say, sunshine, flying, chilling, partying, acroing (many uk. first's) and recoveing. I suppose you just had to be there.

For links to vids of the action check out the link to p.g. forum, enjoy ( I certainly bloody did :wink: )

Ohh ye and we raised about £2500 or local charities, job done. See ye all next year, same time, same place.

Its by the 'Lucky Clowns' acro team from Switzerland. These guys are some of Europe's best acro pilots and came over especially for the LCC, managing to do the u.k.'s first 'D-Bag' and 'Tumbles'. Hope you enjoy the view of Buttermere from upside down :o
