First Weekend of the Season


Well, we are off to a good start........Launched our big red Virgin on Friday at about 4.45 into clear skys above Bath......went NE for about 12 miles and landed safely in a chaps front garden!(actually it was a field, but positioned where a garden would be.....)......No mishaps or drama apart from the pilot nearly hanging himself during pre-flight safety checks when he got caught in the parachute lines!(not a conventional parachute, its the bit at the top which lets the hot air out!)
