Bo Peep 03-09-2021
Just like the old days; no one else in the air, so I had the whole of Bo Peep to myself and no flying instruments, so just feeling the air and following the birds to find thermals. Nice and quiet, with no beeping.
On the first flight, I forgot to take any instruments aloft with me and I estimated that I got to 2200', by the seat of the pants flying. When I got home and checked the tracklog from my 'phone, it was actually 2238'. Still short of cloudbase (circa 3500'). Tracklog from my 'phone also shows that there was a 6-up climb, with no vario, on the first flight. Second flight, the wind had picked up a bit but still there were 4-up climbs.

I got droned (by arrangement) on the first take off.
It shows why the hanglider take off is no longer suitable for dual take offs. The P/G bowl is far easier for dual flying, now that the fence is moved forwards again.
