This is a hang gliding video I made back in June 2008 during a trip to the suffolk coastal floaters airfield.I forgot to take any photos, so hope this video compensates. I did not get to fly my own airwave calypso hang glider during the airfield visit because my flying skills were not current.For full details of my flying adventure, visit my hang gliding blog.
