Geoff writes: a better day than we expected. Windy, but less north than forecast, so was fine for the Long Mynd. Quite a few hang gliders out, including Bry and Andy from the Peaks. We had a some nice flights on the hang gliders. Good to see Stewart, a new HG pilot having a good flight – excellent launch and landing, and a half hour flight in between. Well done Stewart!
Just one PG turned up, and flew, even though it was a bit strong when he launched and the sky was still full of wave.

Cheers again Geoff and Judith for your help and advice – also to the others on the hill. I really felt yesterday was useful, and learned a lot.
I took a 2 minute video of my landing, which I am currently showing to my work colleagues to scare them witless. The ground comes up verrryyy fast….
