Had a nice flying session today with a couple of mates at our local coastal slope site.
Introduced Daz to Reeds for the first time & he took to it like a duck to water.

Very nice. Just need to get off my butt to build a 75% Wizard of Oz that I promised myself a few years back!

Very nice Ron and Phil. I've often wondered if the spoil heaps near Xscape would be suitable for soaring. Seems they are!
Now how about an indoor slope soaring facility like the Xscape indoor ski slope. I see astro turf, perfect inclines and big fans for the wind controlled by the flyer from his TX. Probably wouldn't take much on the door I suppose!

Cheers

That would be three short blips and hold for North, I suppose...? :lol:
