Exciting weekend flying the Columbia River Gorge

Posted on October 09, 2012 in Maren Ludwig   

Just got home from a really fun and exciting weekend flying in the Columbia River Gorge on a combined motoring and free flying trip. Our students as well as myself got rewarded with plenty of airtime and some incredibly nice October weather. The site is on the desert side of the Gorge with some striking landscapes and really cool rock formations. I always love flying the coast, but it was very nice to have such a dramatic change of scenery.

World Fly Games Champion, Yes please!

Posted on September 17, 2012 in Dean Eldridge   

Well it was a long way to go from the east coast of Spain to northern Quebec for a weekend competition but thankfully it all paid off splendidly. It started with an 8 hour drive from the Costa Brava in Spain with very little time to pack everything after a busy but very enjoyable week teaching Brazilian film producer Sylvestre Campe to fly.

On the mend….

Following my recent little incident you will all be pleased to hear that I’m healing up quite well. With 6 weeks in plaster and confined to a wheelchair you’d think that i’d be house bound and bored out my mind. Well it just shows when routine changes you just have to make the most of the opportunity.

Slalom comp in Canada

Posted on September 14, 2012 in Dean Eldridge   

It’s been a fairly interesting start to the trip out here to Mont Joli in Quebec for the Fly Games World slalom competition. It all started at Montreal airport where we had to pick up our bags and clear customs before the short flight out to Mont Joli. Unfortunately I discovered that the fuel tank of my Parajet Zenith had been confiscated during transit in Frankfurt so an alternative had to be found. Thankfully there are some wonderfully helpful Parajet/Paramania pilots out here in Canada that have helped me ‘retro’ fit a tank from a different machine with cable ties, straps and pop-rivets!

Paramania wing testing with the Zenith

Posted on August 20, 2012 in Dean Eldridge   

After a very successful Paramania testing session in the south of France with the new GTR22 wing, I hopped over the Pyrenees to continue testing at altitude with my great friends the Guerra family (Paco Sr. Paco Jr. and Javi.) All were very impressed with the new Zenith 200 which they hadn’t seen in the flesh before.

Podium finish at Slalomania

Posted on August 06, 2012 in Dean Eldridge   

Well, after missing out on the podium at the last Slalomania event by just 2 points after a silly mistake at the end, my focus for the latest round was consistency throughout and this certainly paid off with me gaining the 3rd spot this time!
