Emma represents the UK in comps. A mom of two, Pwc pilot and estate agent, married to Steve and living in Annecy, France.
We chat about the property market and flying in Annecy. Paradise.. A playground described. Anyone for a chateau..a bargain at 3,5million Euros
Discussing the competition mindset. Emma has always been competitive. Started in 2009 and flying 6 to 9 comps per year. Having a rethink about that...! BPRA.. Good view on flying comps.
Jocky Sanderson.. Sent her on first xc with just 12 hours of total airtime!
"On the radio.. Pull in big ears... WHAT is big ears?"
How much there is to learn in paragliding.
Rus Ogden, Robbie Whittall and Judy Leden all discussed.
Tips for safety, flying and comps.
Don't beat yourself up after a bad task.
Analyse your task. Fly your own task.. Know your instruments. Quiet and meditation before takeoff. How to pass 120 people... Pick them off.. Thermal markers. Calculate, be confident.
Macedonia and krushevo.. Like a European Colombia.. Such a generous place. Such a great place! Any level can fly there. I love it!
Great places to fly.do your own thing, fly your own flight.. Be safe. The herd mentality.
Travel and flying, Japan discussed. Gliders flown.. The Gin leopard....niviuk and new x one. New models coming out! Bgd, 777, supair, the next best thing.
About happiness
Bummed about the superfinal was canceled.
Finally the funny pee story!
