Wing type:Paraglider
Flight details:
Nancy, Simon and I got up together from Combe, on our second attempt, which was very nice. It wasn't at all easy going and we got low about 10k from launch. Nancy took a glide from near 'base to the deck. Simon and I managed to hang on and carried on together. Simon landed next to a rave near Midhurst. %D I managed to get a couple more climbs and landed south of Petworth, near a place called Sutton, for about 75k. 25k short of the Dyke. The sky just ahead of me looked like it was still working, with nice Cus, but I didn't quite reach the next climb. Mark and Kenny did bloody well to get to the Dyke, I reckon. Apparently it took them 6 hours! Well flown guys!
