I flew this for a while..
Corsair Motor.. It was the best time of my life... One thing the instructor says, "Beeing completely in control of the supernatural." Isn't true, i hope it doesn't backlash on him and bites him in the bottoms.. Because you can never be completely in controll.
Also seen them making some potentialy fatal mistakes. And i can tell an happy that i live to tell..
You see them flying awfully close to trees.. And the air around an obstacle can be unpreditable turbulent.. Depending in the wind speed a turbulant bubble of 3 to 5 times bigger than the obsacle.. It can collapse your wing, and a collapsed wing is going into a parachute dive of about 9 metres per second. So flying near obstacles so close to the ground and you get a collapse, it takes a blink of an eye, you feel the collapse, you look up, but it is already to late, you hit the ground before you realise what's happened.
It broke my back and needed buy new tires for a year instead of new shoes..
Unfortunately the damage left me unable to fly ever again.
Just realise everytime you do it, you are for the most part lucky to get down again without scratches.. It's what nobody likes to think about and thats for most pilots their demise.. Thinking your completely in control.. Till the day mother nature tells you otherwise. Usealy this is a very very hard lesson..
But i'm hardheaded as well, if i could i would fly again no doubt about it..
