Training days for the new Team student, John, natural from California and residing in Dorado. He is a former Sky Diver and Kite Surfing racer. We certainly hope that he will soon join us on flights around the island.
On Tuesday 9, we began his theoretical and practical training in Villa Pesquera Isabela. There, Instructor Luis Ruiz was also conducting Demo flights to possible student David García, his daughter Daneisy and José Moreno, a native of Mexico.
On Wednesday 10, we had a difficult climate to fly and practice. Luis Ruiz met with John, this time at the Posa del Obispo in Arecibo. They spent some hours in the afternoon practicing both with the little training gliders, BGD Seed…
On Thursday 11, we returned to Villa Pesquera Isabela. And there was a strong wind 💨!!! This time John was accompanied by another student, Mario Muñiz, the pilots Alberto Sabah, Edgardo Rivera his wife Wilnelia, Luis Ruiz and their son Ian Darrell.
Alberto was testing his equipment on future flights, while Luis, Ian and Edgardo were able to fly in wind conditions of 18 mph +, which then rose to over 20 mph+😉 …
After this we will prepare for the weekend that promises to have some action…
