Apr 19/17 – PPG course day 3 – pm

Rain stopped at 5 pm so at 6 we were back to ground handling. We had perfect wind for reverse and then later for forward but grass was not completely dry so the forward inflations later on were quite difficult. I had to use wineyard to dry one of the canopies and later hang them dry in my shop at home.

Guys did good job but its not perfect yet. More work is needed

Another early morning. Started at 6:30 am because we knew that wind will pick up very quickly. Only managed to ground handle with small training paragliders for 1.5 hrs then it started to rain and wind started to gust to 40 km/h
