  3. The wing being flown in Nepal was a Gin Rebal Race not the Dudek Plasma.

    Flying the Plasma in the kind of conditions we were flying in would not have been a good idea, anyway the Rebal has a far better glide/sinkrate than the Plasma.

    Yes Norman lots of Browney points required for that trip.

  4. Hi All

    Not been around as myself and Rob Ginger have been in Nepal flying our ars**s off for the last couple of weeks. :D

    Free flying in strong thermic conditions with the most spectacular scenery is just so amazing, something you have to experence for yourself. :x

    Thame airport (Haddenham). :lol: hardley an airport. its haddenham tow glider launch site. :)

    What are the restrictions there? They only fly as a club at weekends so keep a good distance away and dont fly over the field. :shock:

    The main areas to watch out for around us are Raf Halton, Benson, Chalgrove,Booker,Oxford,and the Lewknor parachute club.

  6. Hi Eddie

    Sorry Eddie it was me just buzzing Thame after a couple of hours flying with the local bucks and oxon boys :D
