I enjoy my Gin Bolero Plus

On a sunny day, a short while back, me and a local buddy decided to see what the late winter may throw at us 'thermal' wise. After a nice flight of 50+ minutes up and down the 'Lady Sleeper' mountain range, I took this picture with my - cellphone ! I did not think much of it until I saw it on the pc's screen. Not that bad for a cell phone. Here it is, for you to judge. Greetings from South Africa. Mario :-)

The very first paraglider winching for our club.

Yesterday our club instructor surprised us by asking the club pilots to drive at a nearby airfield as opposed to a suited hill/mountain. Now I ain't a club pilot yet, but I still went to the airfield just to see what is all the fuss about. What a suprise it was to see the instructor next to his vehicle which had a paraglider winch attached at the back. After a 'crash' course - off we went. First the instructor himself and then the older/experienced pilots. At first I was a bit 'afraid' but after watching the others, I had a go. And what a experience it was ! We - the student pilots - took the show over going again and again. Some of us got up to 200m on occasion. I had winched 4 times by the time the sun went down. What a day !
