I really want to appeal to your common sense and ask that you remove this thread about dangerous kiting practices, it could be detrimental if say a member of the public were to read it. It could get the sport banned and that's not good for the industry, eeer i mean the kiters.
.... this was basiclythe summary of a 3 hour meeting with the hgfa last week
who red thumbs this?!?! and i know saying the word red thumb means i earn 10 more but seriously were you at that ****ing meeting??!? the one where we spent one and a half god damned hours watching 50+ year old men try to convince eachother how social media works and how to turn it into a positive force for the organisation rather then a negative which allows french and italian pilots to go throwing themselves off our hills willy nilly with no respect to the local rules/airspace restrictions etc? because that meeting will NEVER leave me. i spent half my childhood laying in bed thinking if i turned my head the boogeyman/witch would devour me and now the boogeyman is back AS that meeting! its no doubt going to be me sitting in a shed with a bunch of other old farts ****ing whineing on about 3d real life simulation brain neuron pulseing book or whatever **** were jacked upto in the future. and it is inevitable, i can not turn my head. it is going to happen when i do.
