Thanks for the memories of flying at Tallows....

Can't watch any more....! Too many nostalgic memories of the mid/late 1970's when I lived and flew my life away in Byron Bay. Thanks so much for sharing.

Thanks mate, It's been closed a long time, nearly there. Bring your mask If you go into the town..

As always thoroughly enjoyable! Have you got a new harness and helmet? High vis!!!

We hadn't flown the Bay for a while-yep, new harness, helmet, vario and gloves, ha, a make-over. High vis is safer.. Love you sis..

Thanks for flying for us both Col. I really enjoyed that one!!! Looked nice and lifty but not too strong.

Yep, the most eastern part of the continent..

Nice, and the harness 👌that gecko flys nice although the pilots got a lot to do with it as well , I’m still having trouble tuning mine it’s hard to roll out of a turn feels really stiff ,not what I see in this vid ,looks like it urns pretty much instantly or you. Check my next vid and see what you reckon, may just be me🤣100 hour pilot. My old 93 xt pro turns way easier and it’s a tight , stiff and bigger surface area ,so does my sonic and my sting 2xc 154. I think the gecko should be heaps better handling than a 30 year old glider , would like to get mine sorted, Rob de Groote is going to see if he can sort it , it’s been a year . Even my topless nano combat wing is way lighter in handling . All good though I have 9 other gliders to choose from 🤣got to get it sorted before Corryong as I’ve had noooo practice

Thanks for that, yep, got to have some harness hours-feeling more at home. This Gecko felt a little heavier than my Sting3, but then the Sting is really quick roll-my Gecko is way more roll responsive than my C4 topless. I know your issue was about the rolling out of turns though-all gliders seize up a lot when in deep mush mode. Hopefully it's a simple trim issue, I don't think it's the pilot.. Rob is a very experienced Moyes pilot/legend-good luck..Will look at your video.
