I managed to fly Quinns Rock for 45 minutes before it got to 21 knots and blew my tits off.
Thanks to my Aspen 4 :D

Golden rule for coastal flying....."Keep one eye on the water looking for an increase in whitecaps, and if they do, Land" That way even a Bolero won't ket blown back :o

No no the golden rule when you are flying an Aspen in presence of Goldens, you keep an eye on the Goldens if they are blown back then you look at the white caps to keep flying for a while. Isn't it, Gabe? :lol:

Good point, but won,t work if you have a 100kg pilot flying a small wing. If they can stay up then you should land :wink:
