Stefan Bertschi Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 ... and at ninety miles per hour it hit him like dynamite. Jonathan Seagull exploded in midair and smashed down into a brick hard sea. (Richard Bach, Jonathan Livingston Seagull) It was truly a memorable day. I had (well, I think we all had) great fun and some fantastic flying this last sunday. Thank you all for your hospitality which made this (perhaps a little bit bonkers) trip really worth it. Cheers Stefan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter G Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I kind of know what its like Simon. Well not seagull murder as such, but I once did a really spoony cast when pier fishing in the Isle of Man and a seagul took the bait :eek: Rather than try an reel it in I cut the line so there is/was a seagull on a string living in Laxey I.O.M for a while. I still feel a bit bad but it was an accident, and they can't be helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwest532 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 That doesn't sound good. For the seagull I mean. Also I don't suppose you had the support of 3 close friends to make you feel better about the whole situation. Luckily for Simon he had Stefan, Martin and myself on hand to help him through this traumatic ordeal. I'm sure if you asked him he would say that the whole experience would have been far worse if it wasn't for our support. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gromit Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I've never been to the HOH so it was great to see so much of it on your vid. Looks a brilliant site. Srangeley, i prefered the rearward looking run, to the forward looking :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwest532 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Not a glider video but the camera has potential to make videoing on the hills and even on the planes much easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonesoaring2003 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Nice one Joel, I notice you didn't follow the police car! I thought you might at least have shown us how rugged it is! The only thing with the Go pro mounted on a model is its not exactly streamlined!! Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
