Flight details: | A lovely day flying up into the wispies at Beachy. I was surprised how buoyant it was all the way along the beach to the circular fort and out to sea. The only downside was my appalling first landing, misjudging the approach, falling short of the target, landing in the rotor behind the cliff and busting an upright weak link. But that was quickly repaired with assistance from Luke and Nicos ready for another flight after lunch. |
