  • It's been a long term goal for me to fly this site. I'd previously come down to the Gower for a week only for the wind direction to be east all week. I came back this time and took my opportunity. Strong winds but with the Tonic 2, it was great. A beautiful place.
    Tonic 2 handled beautifully and was very happy to get it out again and get some more air time on it.
    No music this time. I took the case of the action cam to make sure the sound was picked up. Though it's obviously mostly just wind noise, it does pick up the wind passing through the lines of the glider at times.
    Local pilots here are awesome people. Very friendly and helpful. The ones I met were also obviously very skilled pilots too.
    A note about the site - if you fly the site, there is a site fee and you must be a full BHPA member. Time of writing (August 2021) this was £2. It's paid to National Trust in their shop. While local pilots will tell you anyway, and you should get a site brief if you've not flown here before, do not land on the gassy land above the beach. Landing is top or on the sandy beach only.

      It's a small - 16 meter (area projected). I sit in the top third of it's 'hike and fly' range on Skywalk's chart they do for it.
