Flying with kites

[Lanner_Man]

hi folks,
just to let all the welsh peps know, there is a program about the black mountains falconry centre in Abergavenny, and how they trained three ked kites to fly with a paraglider, it features Lolo Williams flying the paraglider and how hes learnt how to fly the birds and paraglider. Should be a real treat to watch, its on Boxing day at 8:00pm BBC 2W. All the foreign (english) people on the forum might get that channel on digitat somewhere (around channel 960???)
Worth watching!

Merry Christmas

Luke

Dude i'll record it on VHS, , i could transfer it to dvd via my computer, but you'd lose quality

If somone has a Tv card working on their comp they could use this to record it. then send it that way.

[Lanner_Man]

so who saw it??

[Pitbull]

saw it but a bit disappointed

[Kevin Massey]

it was ****

[Lanner_Man]

how come?

[Kevin Massey]

more learning how to paraglide than anything...bit of poor creance work (self admitted)...and a dissapointing conclusion nearly missed that bit it was that short....left you feeling........."is that it", but there again it is o-m-o

[Lanner_Man]

fair comment, did notice the dogy creance work but i thought it was quite nice to watch, and the family enjoyed it aswell.

[Kevin Massey]

dont get me wrong the birds were beautifull...i-m-o it was the program that was poor...sorry

Hi,

I've just found this thread on "Flying with Kites" i've not seen it yet as i'm based in Nepal doing the same thing but looking forward to it, sounds interesting.

I've been doing the same here with Black Kites for the last five years, this year alone i've clocked up over 30 hours of flying time with one of my birds. I also made an award winning film a few years ago called "Parahawking" which has sold thousands of copies worldwide, if you are interested in finding out more about the film and the courses i run have a look at:
