Morning Clouds Over The Peaks

in paragliding •  8 years ago 

Hello Folks,

Here is some footage of good friend and fellow flyer Brian 'Turbo' Tunnard (head honcho of the Cloud Hoppers paramotor club) flying over the beautiful Peak District in England. He is joined by fellow flyers Paul Haxby & Roger Finnegan.

Filmed in late October 2016, the pilots fly 43 miles around Derwent Valley, Mam Tor, Edale, and finishing off at Chatsworth House.

They even spot a 'tree-hugger' (paraglider pilot) getting ready to launch on the slope of Mam Tor.


I hope you find the scenery and flying amazing.

TTFN,
Rob.

I live in Utah and plan to take up flying a para-motor this year after completing training. Can't wait to make my first flight.

Its simply amazing and speechless. What a beauty mesmerizing view of the river and mountains slops. Great video. after watching feel good and refreshing.

It is an awesome feeling, though I've never got to the heights and durations of these guys. Makes me jealous lol.

View was awesome. especially when you are passing over the clouds. It looks like some cottons are spread over the sky and you can jump on it.
I am feeling so much amazed by watching this video I am also thinking how much you got exited when you rode the glider.

You'll have to try a tandem flight :)

Nice flight Rob.

I am telling @captainobviou3 about you. He is new to paragliding.

Thank you :) Err @captainobviou3 is already aware of me, sorry lol :)

Good.

I have never tried paragliding but your beautiful posts are making me think why havn't i tried it. This one goes to my bucket list!

Yes it's an amazing feeling. Is it on your bucket list for a one-off tandem flight or flow blown lessons to pilot status?

Tandem flight to begin with :)

Okie doke :)
