Gliding in the Snow

The snow hasn't thawed everywhere though... Today I braved the airfield, while Char sensibly stayed warm at work! Cold but worth it for the wonderful snowy landscape...



The airfield and hangars.



A brave paraglider!



Preparation...



Tug ready to go...



And away!

Is that anywhere near Aldsbourne? I think that's how it is spelt.

Thanks for posting Dave! It really looks stunning, wish I'd been there with you to admire the landscape instead of at work. It's snowing outside again, here in Manor House...

There is an Aldbourne in Wiltshire, not really nearby though. The site is in the Dunstable Downs, near Luton Airport (a major London airport)
