Giles and Mark. Morecambe and Wise? Surely Laurel and Hardy. "That's another fine Vid you've got us into." You flying a Nine at Sun & Fun should be as much of a crowd stopper as Ben flying the Jet DoodleBug at Lang Marston Internationals. Enjoy! And take plenty of memory cards.

Hi Neil, thank you for your kind words, but I don't think I'm not quite in the same league as Ben but I hope I can demonstrate the best of Flylight and AEROS products. It's still going to be an epic adventure, I hope I can do the vlog justice.

@stone8597 3 месяца назад

Great video. Looks like you're getting the hang of the new wing. I went to Sun & Fun last year...but can't make this year... that sucks. When you say "the Nine is a beast"... is that a good or bad beast? Anyway, I recently put my order in on a Nine... guess I'll know soon enough for myself🤣

@GolfFoxtrot22 3 месяца назад

Hi Stone, definitely in a good way. It's got loads of power and performance to match the thrust. It's not better than the Adam/Peabee, just different. I'm still getting dialled into it.

Thats more food for thought 🤔 SSDR (bivvy bee , Nine) or 2 seat full fat 🤯 That would make an interesting comparison 😃

@GolfFoxtrot22 3 месяца назад

Hi Andy, yes, very much so. The big full fat machines will always have the carrying capacity but running costs to match. I did think long and hard about buying a twin seat and going the permit route but costs put me off.

@andrewlang8575 3 месяца назад

@GolfFoxtrot22 I'm currently thinking long and hard about exactly that. The only thing in my mind is passenger carrying capacity, other than that it's a no brainer to go for the lighter machine for me.

I'm interested in your wing comparison video. I'm about to bite the bullet on one of these and I value your opinion.

@GolfFoxtrot22 3 месяца назад

Hi TruthHurts, what sort of flying will you be doing, I might be able to help now. It will be a little while before I get to make it.

@TruthHurts2u 3 месяца назад

@@GolfFoxtrot22 Sorry for the essay. I'm undecided but ultimately I'd like the best of both worlds flying low and slow, soaring thermals with engine off and having the option of doing some x-country flying. However, I have my paramotor for low and slow flying. Most of my flying will be local and solo but I would like the option of being able to do x-country sight seeing and fly with others should I ever meet another pilot to fly with. I guess my biggest goal would be to extend the times I can fly. So hopefully flying these midday isn't as big of an issue as it is on the paramotor. I live in the desert and the air can get quite rowdy out here. The thermals start to be too much for me on the paramotor by 9-10 am. I'm OK with the big bumps while flying but the possibility of a collapse is always in the back of my mind. Another concern is that we always have wind gusts here and they really freak me out. Between the strong thermals and the gusts I'm constantly stressing out that the wing is going to collapse to have any fun. I know it's mostly in my head but I'm hoping a rigid wing could help me relax a little more when things start to get a little spicy once you start getting closer to midday. How is midday flying on one of these? Or is it not recommended like a paramotor?

@GolfFoxtrot22 3 месяца назад

@@TruthHurts2u no worries at all. The Adam is a thermal capable wing, which is lighter in feel with a good 45mph cruise speed. The NiNE is very much a touring wing 55mph cruise that you point in the right direction and go, but with a bit of play in the background. I fly all year round, all day long so you'll have no worries there worrying about collapsing. From what you have said, I think the Peabee2 with the Adam wing would be the one to go for, but these are just my thoughts on what you have written.

@TruthHurts2u 3 месяца назад

@@GolfFoxtrot22 It looks like it's not going to happen. The US dealer is adding $5,000 usd to the list price. I'm sure some of that is shipping but that makes the NINE $25k - $26k usd and the Peabee is at $21k usd which puts them just out of my price range. Especially once I factor in the cost of training which is another $5 - $6k. 😭 We need to set up a Flylight factory here in the US to bring the cost down before it's a realistic option for me. I guess I'll just have to keep my eyes open for a used Northwing ATF or Aeros ANT to fulfill my dream of flying a trike.
