FLA2.26: Lots of training, outside every day, small wings, big wings – then flying
· by Kai Kessler
¡Hola de la isla de Lanzarote amigos!
Last week ended stormily here… 90 km/h wind… 🤷💯🤘 It was cold… well, by island standards at least… there were rain showers again and again… oh dear…
The new crew stood at our little red volcano on the coast on Sunday evening, full of motivation… OK, it was already down to half of the previous day’s 90 km/h… But Heli was the only one to fly, just before sunset, with his 12 m² Bantam… 🤘💯😎🤷
Monday morning we headed out early to our Pechos. I gave a speed briefing and various support with “Kai-ting up the dune” while Heli supported from the air. For some it was already half a nice flying day until the wind picked up again… But luckily we have our small wings 💯😎🤘
Yesterday we gambled and won: in the windward compression at Orzola we were able to train for 2.5 hours in what was actually 55/60 km/h wind, until the tide came in and our beach was gone… But still – we get out whatever we can!
Flying! Finally!
BUT NOW: the forecasts agree – the wind is dropping now! For us in week FLA2.26 that means: FLYING!!! Finally!!!
Right now we’re on our way to Orzola… This afternoon maybe Mala – El Cuchillo – our local volcano…🤷?!? Something will come of it… and tomorrow and Saturday look like flying too!
So – all good: first body coordination and sports motor skills and a new understanding of the system – then the flying! Perfect, really💯🤘😎 I’ll report back…
I’ll be tackling the coming weeks here with Holger and Sandra… there are still a few places left for February and March – we’re here for you and with you until mid-March, and one or two esteemed flight instructor colleagues have already announced their visit.
Thank you for your !!!100% positive feedback!!! from the past weeks!!! We’ve adjusted our concept weekly, flexibly changed it where needed and developed it further… And lots of new things and developments for the future are emerging from that!💯🤘😎 Thank you for your support in every area!!!😘💯🤘
¡Y ahora – vamos a volar chicos!
Lisa, Sandra, Heli and Kai 💯🤘😎😘
