alan_k Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Beautiful, evidently a good flight? I've flown for the last 4 days so I'm having a boozy day today, Cheers, Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted October 2, 2011 Author Share Posted October 2, 2011 That's one good reason to fly early in the day, to have a boozy rest of the day. Thanks for the idea. It was pretty but very unsettled, absolutely zero wind on launch but a big headwind after a few hundred feet which used loads of fuel and was very bumpy. Worth it for the views though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquatix Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 It has been the same over Derbyshire / Peaks - a very low inversion (500 - 600m AMSL) with a strong wind shear layer giving loads of turbulence, then high winds above it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted October 11, 2011 Author Share Posted October 11, 2011 Cheers Luke. I was taking a wrap for landing and the handle just sprang out of my hand, never had that happen before (certainly don't want it again). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyfreefly Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 nice video great place to fly..... I also take a wrap to land and before now it has caught the throttle and caused it to go to full power messing up a landing and causing me to do a go around....i am ashamed to admit it but ive done it more than once Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
