Cheers mate! This video is actually from last year, but I AM having a great time... Videos from last week's trip to Germany soon... and Norway... oh... and Italy earlier in the year...
Wow. You certainly need to have your wits about you up there with all of those other pilots. This is the aspect of HG flying that impresses me the most.
I've watched a lot of your videos. Question? Does your neck hurt from being in that position for so long? I'm a disabled veteran and just watching that for a few minutes I'm feeling pain and your much older then me. Is there any way to support your head more?
Good question! On a really long flight yes it can make your neck ache. But it's like anything else, you build up to it - I can do 4 or 5 hour flights without really much aching. But that's from practice, which I guess builds the muscle. A very few people do put a bungie rope from the top of their helmet going backwards, to support their head. I've never tried this and don't intend to - it's not really needed.
