Algodonales 28th Feb 2020, and my first thermic flight for six months! I was hoping to fly from Algo to Ronda, and then onto Montejaque where we were staying for a few days, but I didn't make it that far, but no matter, it will go down as one of my most memorable flights I've ever had, due to the sheer numbers of Griffon Vultures that I flew with at times... Just wonderful!

After all, the cost of all those 🍦🍦 on the 🏖 does add up 😂
Thanks!

Flying with any birds is awesome. Big ones like that must have felt they could land on you.

Flying with vultures in Spain, seen in another video from Carlos Silva tipped my scale of the decision towards starting paragliding. Now I'm on it and really looking forward to visit that site after my training is complete. You name it, what a privilege... Flying paragliding in general is a privilege for the flying souls, I think only people sharing that deep passion of flying will really understand it and you can show max 1% of the real deal beeing there on the video. And then you get lucky to have this majestic birds flying with you... What you want more? The most expensive things in life will not be able to give you a moment like this, do you agree? Even if you have billions and billions :-) (-:

I totally agree, some moments are priceless - all the money in the world couldn't buy some of the experiences I've enjoyed whilst paragliding. Good luck with your training!

@@TimPentreath Thank you Tim. Hop to see you once somewhere for a chat or a flight, I am lucky to have friends working with the glider brand you fly so that might be pretty possible... Keep it up, love your stories :-D

A great video to watch when the weather doesn't let you fly :) Tim, I have a question: As you have flown your OXA3 for quite a while now, I wonder if you had any scarry, unexpected moments on the wing , or is it REALLY as safe and solid as they say it is? Regards
@TimPentreath
@TimPentreath 4 года назад
arosabat Looks like I’ve had about 45 hours on mine now, with over 30 of those in thermic conditions in the alps, and no, no scary incidents at all, but who knows what’s around the corner...? I don’t think any glider is completely immune from really shitty air... it’s certainly easy to fly and a very confidence inspiring wing.

Fabulous scenery. The vultures were quite good guides until they clearly decided to lure you onto that hill by pretending to work phantom lift! Does the vario you use have a thermal-centering helper, like my Naviter Hyper, and if so, do you use it? What fabulous scenery, by the way!
@TimPentreath
@TimPentreath 4 года назад
Bill Brand I could have stayed soaring that ridge for ages but I decided that I’d had a fun flight, and I knew Lisa was probably close, and there was a bar there too! My vario (XC Tracer Mini II GPS) doesn’t have a thermal centring tool itself but the app it connects to (Flyskyhy) does. It works well...

Wow! So many vultures!! What an awesome experience...thanks for sharing. How do you add the the Ayvri track?...do you film your computer screen with the gopro then add it as clip? Cheers Tim!
