Pie and Peas

[Guest]

All,

Here is my plan regarding the Pie and Peas next weekend.

If its flyable, I will be staying local as I am snowed under with people waiting for first flight weather.

If its not flyable, I will be taking a spin up on Saturday and coming home again on Sunday.

We've been watching the Coast to Coast walking series on BBC4.

Last night 7 May 7:30 pm included the area we flew and walked over last

Saturday. As they have plenty of ground and air shots, it was the perfect

reminder of a top weekend.

In particular, the vista from the stone seat we sat on on the first ridge East

and the helicopter view of the Wain Stones a few more ridges East, are exactly

as they were.

Anyone recognise who the two paramotors towards the end of the show?

IMHO this is must to watch. Can a cleverer person find the watch again link?

Cheers

Paul

Thanks. I was just flew it again over lunch. Fantastic!

One others comes close, but the Pie N Peas and the Jurassic Weymouth to Swanage coastline are THE best places I've flown. I'm willing to travel to be convinced, if you know different?

Cheers

I had a nice fly at the pie and peas during the short flyable window on sat. Short but sweet.

I just flew about a bit and then flew over to the forrested ridge and left the motor on idle for a while and soared for a bit. Can't take the PGer out of a PPGer I guess.

What a lovely place to fly. Had the flyable window not been so small I was looking forward to going up again and doing a bit of small XC but it wasn't to be. Lugged my gear up the main ridge later on Sat to try some free flying but it was gusting to over 25mph.
