| Flight details: | This year I had the great pleasure of taking part in the British Nationals in Laragne. It has been an exhilarating experience, showing me the best flying I've ever had and helping me learn more than I've learned this whole year.
The flight below is one of my favourites, where I have done the task (rather conservatively, I got to goal 1km over the landing field) and then I carried on for another hour and a half as it was too nice to go down. It had it all, I flew with hanggliders, sailplanes, vultures, I flew alone, high and low and everything in between. I was a bit slow, but I did an 82km FAI triangle and it was absolutely gorgeous. I had to take my time and enjoy it :)
Sadly I didn't have my gopro with me, so the attached photos are from other days, and so are these videos:

Many thanks to Ozzie who introduced me to Laragne and gave me a taste of the competition flying. What a beautiful place to be! |
