Edith Piaf’s “La vie en rose” can be heard above the heights of Oludeniz, Turkey!
MAYA is a new glider manufacturer in Turkey. The brand has decided to start it’s paragliding history with the commercialisation of a 41 m² EN-B tandem wing, NOMAD, designed for professionals. MAYA say that the glider’s characteristics make it easy to launch and land.
No doubt we will be hearing more soon…
It’s all happening in Quixadà Brazil!
Only a day after Julien Irilli flies his tandem passenger into the record books, Honorin Hamard and passenger fly further to claim a new world tandem distance record with a flight totalling 407km.
4 Nov 2015
Honorin Hamard set out in the direction of Brzil’s Quixada on a mission: to make a new tandem distance world record.
On their first day in Quixada with girlfriend, Karine, they had a “warm-up” declared distance of 335.4km.
But today, Honorin and Karine break the world tandem distance record by flying 407km in 11hrs10 minutes, beating Julien Irilli’s flight made only the day before with his sister as passenger; the first time any tandem passenger has ever flown over 400km’s!
Our congratulations go to both of them.
