I had a go at fixed wing gliding the other year and it was brilliant! My mate has a pilots license and flies a plane for hobby and keeps promising to let me have a go, all I have to do is go halves with him on the cost. I must get around to doing it this year. Type into google G-SEXX (no joke) and it will bring up the plane he flies. If you are interested that is.

 

Just checked the link - it is the running off the Mountain stuff - its awesome I do it in Turkey every year ....

 

with a professional i hasten to add............. lol

 

yeah, thats pretty much where everyone in the South East goes to learn because it has the most flyable days out of anywhere in the UK. Thats where I learnt so Devils Dyke is the main spot and Caeburn hill.

 

Don't they do a lot of that at Beachy head?????.

They seem to forget about the other bit though.......the wing part.....

 

Tanya often found her 'paragliding' descents to be most troublesome...
