Some weekend flying but easterly winds ahead

08-06-2015

We had some great tandem flights on Friday and Saturday, Sarah from Barnstaple, Michael from Liverpool and Michelle from Tiverton were treated to some fantastic conditions.

The week ahead shows a High Pressure system moving slowly over the UK so we will be having easterly winds which won't enable us to do any Tandem Hang Gliding Flights. Looking ahead the weather front is due to come through on Friday so we will be watching the weekend closely for any Westerly winds.

The weather on Thursday was fantastic for Tandem Hang Gliding over Woolacombe. Louise from Plymouth and Richard from Instow were on the hill and both managed to experience what it is really like to Fly Like a Bird!

The wind off the ocean was super smooth, enabling us to climb to 1000 feet over the beach below. Richard was in seventh heaven feeling completely relaxed and found the flight so calming.

The weekend looks a little messy ahead - on the long range Tuesday looks possible with on-shore westerly winds. We are getting booked up quickly over the summer so if you are interested in Tandem Hang Gliding then don't leave booking your flight too late.

Wonderful flights last weekend - Sat & Mon looks promising ahead

We had some great Tandems flights over the weekend. Saturday was a Hang Glider day on top of Woolacombe Downs. Up to 7 hang gliders in the air at one point using the breeze off the ocean to allow us to soar the hill.

High Pressure in the Bay of Biscay should give us some good westerly winds tomorrow afternoon/evening. On the long range the same pattern is setting up for the end of the week so if you are booked in then we will be in touch.

We had some good tandem flying on Saturday before the wind dropped off. Michael was treated to a beach landing at the end of the day!
